I love This Life, it's my fave program ever ever ever - got the boxset and often have a Saturday afternoon This Life sesh.

Cannot wait for the special.

thought there might be a boxset, but with it being repeated it'll soon be on a full download at a torrent site anyhow. Did you ever get a drama called The Crow Road? That and This Life were my favourites as a youngster

What I think I'll stick to my boxsets

Is that The Crow Road by Iain Banks - I've read the book but didn't see it on TV.

i dont see downloading tv programs off torrent sites as being any different to taping it off the telly!

Yeah thats the Iain Banks novel. Joe McFadden starred in it. You should look out for the DVD.

Yes but I can't tape off the TV either, Tom has to do that

I will look out for it cos the book was fab, thanks for the recommendation

I remember I saw the first ever gay scene on tv in this program. Thought it was funny he was called Ferdy, everyone at school called me gay boy though!

We don't go to Ministry when they lower their standards and let the Club Class muppets and the Maidstone inbreds in the place

I was an extra in This Life - the episode where Anna takes Egg's dad clubbing.

 

[Holly G]

I watched this last night, good stuff. They look sooo young and the fashions are so dated they've practically come round again - high waisted jeans anyone?

What club was it?

 

[fatphilb]

uhoh...

i forgot how cringeworthy This Life is watching it with your parents, especially with the manonman scenes....

How lucky am I that a decade later, Im still watching this program with my folks

Dom gets really excited about This life, I don't remember it though.
