Been waiting for this impatiently since I first read about it. A huge fan of People just do Nothing, and Stamp, Mustafa, and Chegwin work so well together as always and retain their roles and relationships from that series in this 80's East End small time gangster heist caper.
The East End settings, the 80's fashions, vehicles, language, smoky pubs are really well done.
All the characters have depth and the plot is fairly bog standard..ill conceived heist gets out of hand and the twists and turns are predictable but in no way tiresome. Hints of Lock Stock and other Guy Ritchie tropes throughout.
I've just sat through all six episodes back to back despite having to be up for work tomorrow.
Excellent supporting actors, as well as the lead roles, and some truly memorable set pieces.
Enjoyed it massively, but knew I would, and will be rewatching this week with my son.
