I really liked it when he was meant to be playing football at school. When the games teacher turned round, the lad was climbing on the crossbar. Not a team player, you see, but who is to say he was wrong?

Fab book and film, if you haven't already you should read/see "Threads", another Barry Hines classic about post apocalyptic Britain!

Takes you back watching it. No more whacking in school now or having to do pe in bare feet. The football game is one of the best bits though.

I agree, bloody petrifying!

It's a must see honeypot and less challenging emotionally than threads!
