    It struck me watching the recent This is England series just how good an actor Joe is. Bearing in mind This is England has more than a good sprinkling of ad-lib, he really is phenomenal. His filmography makes for depressing reading... when will a British director give him the platform his talent deserves??? He needs the big screen.

    I love Joe Gilgun and his dry wit. Such a character, but also a great actor! I'd love to be his mate, as he always makes me laugh. I actually used to live in Chorley, Lancashire (where Joe is from). Never saw him though, but my brother did see him a few years ago in Greggs (the bakers) in Chorley town centre. We need to see you on TV more, Joe! Nice one, Mate... \m/ (:o)

    Gilgun certainly is a charismatic individual, I'm from the States and when I first saw the film I absolutely fell in love with his persona due to his qualities as a decent human being and a good friend from what I perceive. I know the actor does portray his faults as well but that's what makes him all the more charming and suck you into his character as he flourishes throughout the series. Cheers to Joseph, I'm a fan and it would be hard to deter me from staying one! I look forward to his works!

    The first time I saw the film 'This is England' I connected Woody to that kid he played on Coronation street.

Would be funny to see a clip of that again but I dont think there are any around now.

    It was a really incredible scene. It just went on and on, becoming more painful to watch. This Is England '88 was spectacular in my opinion, and I don't use that word lightly. Although '86 was fantastic, I found it an odd mixture of light and very dark. The humour was more complex - Woody slowly unravelling managed to be humorous and very sad. I think in a way '88 was darker than '86, although less brutal. That scene that goes completely silent as Lol feels Mick in the room was so disturbing.

    Full credit had to go to him for that street fight scene with Milky. The way he was able to go from being happy to pure rage was brilliantly acted. Some try to be overly dramatic which ends up ruining the scene but he nailed it as did the other actors involved. First rate job.
