Boys From The Blackstuff

Gizza job. Go on, gizzit.

80s Liverpool.

Chrissie, Loggo, George, Dixie and Yosser are used to hard work and providing for their families. But there is no work and there is no money. What are they supposed to do? Work harder, work longer, buy cheaper, spend less? They just need a chance.

Richly enjoyable, funny, incendiary and humane”
★★★★ The Guardian
