I hadn't hear of this film before noticing on a streaming platform. Being a great advocate of British cinema I was pleasantly surprised by this little offering that has a part realistic biopic of a Burnley businessman.
One of the biggest surprises I got from this film was the performance of Rory Kinnear as the aforementioned Burnley businessman in question David Fishwick. Now most viewers probably best know Kinnear for his role as stiffer-lipped Bill Tanner in the Daniel Craig era James Bond films.
It's a film that I can't really knock, except some common misconceptions of northern England by characters within the M25 boundary (London)!
A feel good film of good overcoming adversity, with a bit of charity, Def Leppard music and true(ish) as the credits say at the beginning to boot antics!
