Why did he have to stash his grandads clothes in the ceiling and then put them on like it was some sort of sordid secret? No wonder my parents heads were mashed
I see that there was an official episode called Aggro Boy. It revolves around these same to characters. It contains a lot of the scenes that are in the video above. But this vide that you posted has a lot of scenes that aren't in that episode. Is this made up of the original episode but includes scenes that were originally left out or what? Either way, thanks a lot for posting this. I've watched Aggro Boy and this. I love both. They're a bit like companion pieces. But I must admit that I prefer the version you posted. The plot in this version flows much better and makes more sense than the official episode. Thanks again! Cheers!
@@Bovver_Saints Oh, okay. I just looked it up and see that 'm just starting to watch this series and see that both episodes are in the first season. Great series. Thanks again.
I got glimpses of it as I remember,as my father used to watch it ! But not sure if l watched a whole episode !! I was 5 in 1970 and it was on late ( for a 5 year old then ! ) . I think it started at 9pm didn't it ?
Why contemporary tv could never personify skinhead culture accurately, when all they had to do was pay attention to them on the streets, I don't know. The hair mainly wrong, longer than in the 50s, and whilst many working class kids edged into the gear when they could afford to at this early date, there isn't one fully recognisable skinhead in this. Personally I miss skinheads, I always thought they were just a misunderstood group of benign teens...😀... On another note, the 'suedehead' at 33.45 is Leon Vitali, who in 1975 played Lord Bullingdon in Stanley Kubrick's brilliant film Barry Lyndon. I prefer him here however, its probably what got him the part, Kubrick was always impressed with boys who could play enigmatic charm mixed with real nastiness........
Yes, it's David Janson. Earlier in his career, he had a brief scene in The Beatles film A Hard Day's Night and later in his career he delivered post to Hyacinth Bucket!
I dunno Skinhead hair varied in length back then. Long hair was in fashion then so hair under an inch long could be classed as Skinhead. As for the thick bit they've overdone that but they did all come from working class backgrounds and some of then were pretty dense, I remember a lot of them on my estate back then.
@@fyc7116 they're not Skinheads either, real Skins were Working class with NO Political Agenda read some real history, Not some made up media Bullshit or better still talk to some Original Skins there are still plenty about.
