There are cast interviews up now too:

(Joe, Vicky, Chanel/Danielle and Shimmy so far, but I reckon a Tomo one will pop up too).

Your hunting skills are strong! ;D I've popped these interviews on the front page.

Digital Spy interview featuring Shane and Vicky McCLure... seems to be transcript of some of the BAFTA talk which occured after the screening of episode one.

Definitely seems like it contains hints at **SPOILERS**!! So avoid.. or blame yourself when you wish you hadn't read it.

I've definitely lost track of some good press coverage over the last few days.

Anyone got any more nice links to post here? I'll be doing a round up of articles and interviews on the front page soon(ish).

Here's a video interview with Joe Gilgun though!

Looks like they've added another cast interview video to the Channel4 site. Thomas Turgoose and Rosamund Hanson:

Couple more articles/interviews. Beware of spoilers of course:

I'm plopping all these links in this thread so I know where they all are when I want to pop them on the front page and the rest of the site.

A really interesting interview from the Guardian today which mostly focusses on the digital filming of This Is England 88.

Thanks for this. So Joe actually has a Lol tattoo on his hand.

Just popped all these links on the front page.. thanks to the finders... mostly Kelpie! ;D

Typically I just found another interview on the Radio Times site with Vicky McClure: www.radiotimes.com/news/2011-12-13/this-is-england-88%27s-vicky-mcclure-on-her-rise-to-bafta-winning-stardom

Hi, I run a blog where I talk about TV, and of course I have featured the fantastic This Is England 88 on this site.

The creator of this website has already recommended it to his followers on Twitter. If you could do the same, please do using my elliot_gonzalez. Also if you read the article I would really like to hear from TIE88 fans like you in the comments section.

Thanks!

A couple more TIE'88/TIE'90 bits on Shortlist.

A funny set report from TIE'88 here: www.shortlist.com/entertainment/tv/national-treasures

And an interview with Shane here: www.shortlist.com/entertainment/tv/shane-meadows

Sounds like Stephen Graham will have a bigger role in TIE'90! ;D

Just read the Shane interview. LOL @ Mac & Me 2 3D! ;D

Great find. That makes for a right amusing read!
Loving that Joe is a big Trailer Park Boys fan! Despite Joe's take on TPBs, I'm proof that you don't need an affinity with the 'jazz-cigarettes' to fully appreciate the show. I'm totally straight-edge me (which I say if I'm trying to be cool, but to most people that just translates into being a bore ;D )!

Waay Woody's a TPB fan-my love just went to whole new level. I'm sure you don't need to be a fan of Jazz fags to appreciate the boys, but Ricky's bear hug fights and totally f*cked memory probably resonate if you are ;D
