Boys from the Black Stuff episode 1
It seems quite relevant to be watching this again, 30 years later.
For those of you who are too young to know it, a 5 part series about a group of men struggling to find work in Thatcher's Britain. A TV classic.

I re-watched it a few years ago and fuck me, it's bleak.
