This is England '88 (2011)
This 3 part mini series from Shane Meadows is the second sequel to This Is England (2006) and stars Vicky McClure. Haunted by the having killed her father, driven away her long term boy friend and struggling to raise her young child a woman has a bad Christmas.
There have certainly been some big events since the last mini series and the series deals with some dark issues really well. The only real downside is that the sub plot with the original central character from the first film seems a little out of place given the new focus of the series. As always director Shane Meadows provides some nice montages as well.
4/5
