Off Topic NETFLIX and Box Set series Thread.

Watched ID2 Shadwell army on Netflix. Made 2006. A lot of it filmed in Hull. Had to laugh when they go to Amsterdam and the red light district is Hulls old town.

 

their fight with dutch rozzers was outside trinity church and i believe the longboat was in beverley

 

Yeah def trinity square

 

The one who played Shadwell used to go in Kingston after shooting. Had a word with him a few times, really nice bloke.

 

I seem to remember they did some filming in the Guildhall's gents toilets as well.

 

Classy City Hull.

 

Been binge watching City On A Hill on SKY Atlantic. Kevin Bacon is very good in it.

 

The majority of those straight to dvd British gangster/football hooligan films made in the 2000s were a tax scam exploiting an investment loophole created by the government at the time ... As a result, the budget for filming, script and the actors was not so large, as the films were intended to lose money. Not sure if the UK treasury get the residuals from the sale of it to Netflix?

 

That wasn't for the film. But my mate tells me you can find it on certain specialist websites.

 

The films not the best to be fair.

A still from ID2 filmed outside Head of Steam, a couple of City's top boys in there as extras, JL & MC.

 

Just reflecting on how good this film was
We’d both had a drink and both stayed awake for the whole thing!
Unprecedented!

 

Is this film actually called Sharper?

 

Ahh
Yes it was
As I say…I’d had a drink!

 

Who's the one that looks like a potato !

 

Is it only available on Apple ?

 

Been looking myself, seems to be the case.

 

It might be available on dodgy IPTV devices too…I couldn’t say

 

Anybody watched All Quiet on The Western Front on Netflix ?
