This Town.....sorry, but it is dull. I was 16 in 1981 so the music, news and lifestyles are relatable but.....actors putting on brummie accents ? Nah.
Too many mentions of the Lulus and also the character wearing the double bollock chain ? Nah.
Brummie TV programmes....Nah, doesn't work. I'm old enough to remember the p!ss poor and failed soap drama Empire Road from the late 70s. Awful.
The characters in This Town are just so wooden especially the main/lead actor. There's a lot less emphasis on the music side in the show than i expected. I might warm to it in later episodes but you know when something catches your interest early on ? Well this ain't one of them but its just keeping me interested enough to carry on, but only just.
