Kris Hitchen took inspiration for his part from his time working as a plumber in the years between acting jobs.
Like certain other Ken Loach movies, the cast is made up of unknown actors and non-actors. The absence of recognizable stars makes it easier for audiences to believe that the characters are everyday people with relatable struggles.
This was a sequel to Ken's film 'I Daniel Bake' which was also filmed in Newcastle.
The song sung by Abbie's patient, when Abbie is having her hair combed is 'goodnight irene', which is the song sung by Bristol Rovers football club fans.
Film debut of Rhys Mcgowan.
"Abbie Turner: This is my family, and I'm telling you now, nobody messes with my family."
"Ricky: I don't know what's got into you, I really don't. You're a smart kid just like Liza. You used to be in all the top sets. What is going on? Just give yourself some choices mate. Abbie Turner: Seb? Seb: Hmm-mm? Abbie Turner: We've talked about this. You could go to uni. Seb: Go to uni? What, and be like Harpoon's brother? £57 grand in debt and what? Working in a call centre now, getting smashed every weekend just to forget his problems. Of course. Ricky: Yeah, but it doesn't have to be like that does it? There's some good jobs out there. Seb: Good jobs? What good jobs? Ricky: Well there is if you just knuckle down. Give yourself some options. Otherwise you're just going to end up like... Seb: What, like you? Ricky: Oh fucking nice! Abbie Turner: Seb... Seb: Do you really think I want that? Really? Ricky: Yeah... Seb: Well yeah of course I do don't I? I want to be like you. Ricky: Yeah, going from shit job to shit job, working 14 hours a day, having to put up with everyone else's shit. Going from one shit job to another shit job. You're just going to end up a skivvy. Seb: A skivvy? It's your choice to be a skivvy isn't it? A skivvy doesn't come to, you, you go to it - right? Ricky: I'm doing my best Seb. Seb: Maybe your best isn't good enough, is it?"
