I have fond memories of watching the 1997 film and I'm in no way one of those people that say a remake or sequel can spoil a movie from the past, it can't. The original film will always be what it was.
This follow-on tv mini series delivers how real life turns out. There's more elaboration on personal lives. Hardship, relationships, challenges, the nitty-gritty and the warmth that having good people in your life can bring.
It showcases real life in a typical working class city in the UK. The cast were great. An older version of their younger selves we remember from the late 90's. We can't forget this is over 25 years on from then. The world is a little different but the core of the characters remain the same albeit aged with what life brings.
The storylines take on a very modern view of today's world.
I've enjoyed each episode. There's a lot of drama, scandal, character devolpment and surprises thrown in.
The scenic pictures of Sheffield is charming. Good northern humour is thrown in to the mix of some deep storylines.
At only 8 episodes it had me wanting more.
