I've seen two. Very good .Done first 4 will finish it tonight. Excellent so far.
Tbf that's how the rest of the world see us, but I guess only like me considering all southerners are cockneysI've seen two. Very good .
Like the way (so far) Coventry people have Birmingham accents. As expected.
Also seen the 1st 4 episodes and will watch the last 2 tonight. Mostly filmed in Chelmsley Wood with Cov cathedral being the only bit I recognise as being 100% Cov. Pretty sure the several canal viaduct scenes were filmed at the M5/M6 junction.Done first 4 will finish it tonight. Excellent so far.
She died of a heart attack.Was the Irish Grandmother killed or did she have a heart attack? Or are we just meant to not actually know??!
Great. Cheers for that. Ever heard of a spoiler alert?Was the Irish Grandmother killed or did she have a heart attack? Or are we just meant to not actually know??!
Yeah the timeline is off as well for the music.Watched the first two, and enjoyed it, even if it does feel like Birmingham are trying to rewrite history a little bit.
Only other bit of Coventry (apart from those mentioned above) that I spotted was when he was calling the bomb threat through, it was at the top of the subway on Hill St, outside the Gatehouse
Think you been the peaky fucking blinders.The accents are brutal.
Though probably a bit better than Peaky Blinders
Riley Square and Roseberry Avenue, Bell Green, also St Chads Church, Wood End spotted during my watching of it. First episode was a bit dull, hope it picks up which I’m sure it will.Also seen the 1st 4 episodes and will watch the last 2 tonight.

Great series up to now and takes me back to my 20s. Got Peaky Blinders style all over it.
I grew up in Cov and never once heard the IRA referred to as the "ra", though I'm sure that's just me.Lots of inconsistencies that I can't help but notice (even small detail like the pvc window frames) but still a great watch.
You sound underwhelmed?I've watched 6 of them. Is that it?

Still only seen the first episode. Sounds like the first season is maybe an extended version of that…setting the scene?Yeah, very!
It had far too many things going on and then it just ends, not the best at all.
In episode 4 watch out for ( briefly) a bloke running away with a Cov city hat on .Still only seen the first episode. Sounds like the first season is maybe an extended version of that…setting the scene?
Christ, I haven’t lived in Coventry for 45 year’s, but even I recognised Riley Square, Bell Green, The many shots of the ring road, the Cathedral and the estate in Spon End.Watched the first two, and enjoyed it, even if it does feel like Birmingham are trying to rewrite history a little bit.

I thought it was just me, I watched two and gave up, it seems Birmingham is about to create 2 Tone and Cov is full of IRA cells.4 in, hate to say it about a programme in which Cov features so heavily but it's fucking dogshit in my opinion.
The story unfolds after 2 Tone has already been created, I really don’t think it‘s got anything to do with the creation of that particular genre, it’s more an attempt to show what life was like in those areas at that particular time.I thought it was just me, I watched two and gave up, it seems Birmingham is about to create 2 Tone and Cov is full of IRA cells.
From some of the early promo stuff I thought it was going to have a lot more focus on 2 Tone, this just seems more a generic story that could really be set anywhere but has a decent soundtrack.The story unfolds after 2 Tone has already been created, I really don’t think it‘s got anything to do with the creation of that particular genre, it’s more an attempt to show what life was like in those areas at that particular time.
Oh fair enough, maybe i should have given it more of a chance to developThe story unfolds after 2 Tone has already been created, I really don’t think it‘s got anything to do with the creation of that particular genre, it’s more an attempt to show what life was like in those areas at that particular time.
Though I do agree, it’s not all that good.
