''This Is England '86'' is a 2010 British drama miniseries written by Shane Meadows and Jack Thorne. A spin-off from the 2006 film ''This Is England'', and set three years later, it focuses on the mod revival scene rather than the skinhead subculture. Like the film, ''This Is England '86'' stars Thomas Turgoose as Shaun, although Lol (Vicky McClure) and Woody (Joe Gilgun) play even more central roles. The story takes place during the 1986 FIFA World Cup. As Shaun completes his last school exam, he realises he will have to find his way in the world. His friends, who include Woody, Lol, Smell, Gadget and Meggy, are still around, looking for love, entertainment and employment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Meadows to make TV debut with This Is England sequel )〕 ==Development== On 26 August 2009, Channel 4 promised that it would fund a four-part television drama, ''This Is England '86'', to be written by Shane Meadows and Jack Thorne. Meadows said: When I finished ''This Is England'', I had a wealth of material and unused ideas that I felt very keen to take further – audiences seemed to really respond to the characters we created and out of my longstanding relationship with Film4 and Channel 4 the idea for a television serial developed. Not only did I want to take the story of the gang broader and deeper, I also saw in the experiences of the young in 1986 many resonances to now – recession, lack of jobs, sense of the world at a turning point. Whereas the film told part of the story, the TV series will tell the rest. Meadows said that Combo (Stephen Graham) would return, that the fate of Milky would be revealed, and that a wedding between Woody and Lol would be called off. He said if the series succeeded, he would follow it with another series.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Shane on This Is England spin-off )〕 He said Milky was alive and that Woody has a factory job and was about to marry Lol. He said that scooters, including Vespas and Lambrettas, would be used in the series - reflecting the scooterboy subculture of the mid to late 1980s. Channel 4's terms for the series was that the original gang had to be slimmed down. This resulted in the removal of a few characters that were in the feature film: Kez (Kieran Hardcastle) and Pob (Sophie Ellerby) were cut, while Pukey (Jack O'Connell) had to be cut as the actor had other commitments. Pukey's dialogue and story was given to the returning character Harvey (Michael Socha), who had a bit-part in the film as a school-bully;〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Welcome to Shane Meadows.com )〕 the series does not explain how he joined the gang or got on friendly terms with Shaun. A new bully, Flip, takes Harvey's place as Shaun's tormentor and leads a moped gang (Harvey is ironically the first person to hit Flip for threatening Shaun in episode 3). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「This Is England '86」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
