This is How Movies Should Be Made

Let's be realistic.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

This BBC sitcom, about a lazy underclass Mancunian family (and their friends and neighbours), is better than it sounds. Almost all of it takes place in the family's house. It's very well-written and well- acted - and the interactions between the characters are often hilarious.

One of the closest, most accurate perceptions of a typical northern working class family I've ever seen. we all know characters like the characters in The Royle family.It's written so well, in the Queen of Sheba, one minute you can be laughing, the next your teary-eyed.The actors portray the characters so well, and the moments just sat round the TV with all the family, are funny because you can relate to them. everyone knows a Joe, a Cheryl, a Mary, a leggings Lorraine etc.One of my favourite ever programmes, and i'd love to see more of it in the future.

To start off with, the show is from Salford This show is truly amazing, very British humour, so anyone not from england will probably not find this show funny. Its basically the every day life of ordinary people, and what they do. The show is about a family watching TV. Doesn't sound so great, but isn't that what everyone does? They act like every single family in england do and the way we act. Such as the long pauses and awkward silences within conversations, and how they mock each other. Its great to watch something that everyone does, and thats why it is so funny. Examples are when they ask each other what they have for tea, its so simple but the lines are greatly delivered.

Jim Royle is a "hard working" father who tries to look after his wild family.I'll rephrase all of that: Jim Royle is a lazy old man who sits in a chair all day long watching television, and the other members of the family are just as bad. The son (Anthony) does all their work for them. I love this TV series, I find it very amusing and always tune in on Monday nights! You HAVE to watch this!8/10
