"send 'em down *something* lane" - was "send 'em down Manningham Lane" , a red-light district in Bradford

What was the name of the old fella on the balcony? he was so funny, the little dance he did when the bikers came as well was a classic, what was his name? he isnt listed in the credits.

At the time of filming it was Lumb Lane, just off Manningham Lane, which was the red light area of Bradford.
Went to the world premiere of this in Bradford and it was a riot of Irish drunken debauchery, mainly involving Andrea Dunbar's family.

My favourite lines have got to be:

"tell us another one"
"make your own f*king tea"
"aaahhhh tek no notice of her sue"
"I wish you wouldn't put your tongue in me mouth"
"anyway, what've stopped here for, and what we talking about rubber jonnies for?"
"get yer knickers off"
"talk like that's dirty in our house, if i say owt like that i'd get a belt"
bob-"it's got reclining seats this car", Sue-"what d'you want us to do about it?"
sue-"what d'you think yer doin?" bob-"don't you like it" sue-"yea. why don't you do it to her"
"go on bob, get stuck in there!"
"he can't half go like t'clappers"
rita-"i wonder if he'll bring us here again" sue-"oh he will. Make no mistake about that"
"if that teacher wants you to make f*kin' buns tell her to give yer t'money"

I absolutely love this film! it's got to be the funniest thing you've ever seen!!!

"he can't half go like t'clappers"

This is my favourite line. It's the way she exhales her cigarette smoke immediately after that creases me up.

All the above, and :

Bob : " I thought i were great ! " .Lol, it's the way he says it !

When Michelle is getting ready, admiring herself in the bedroom mirror & Sue & Rita are there with her.

Rita: I think it'd look better if you dint av a bra on.

Michelle : Oh no I'll av to wear a bra, when I'm dancin all the fellas'll be watching me tits boblin up and down and I cant do wi' that.

When Mavis spots bob in the club with the girls after the gangbang song. That 1 line "Alrite Bob, enjoyin y'self are ya? .....It kills me!

When michelle says "Bob will never leave me"

Rita and Sue in the back of bobs car : We ant got eggs inside us. We're not ducks y'no!

Absolutley love thios film. Real Northern humour at its best!!

"Watch me bleedin ornaments!"

We used that line for years after watching this movie...

reply

[–] BethH24 15 years ago

Lol !.The club where Black lace perform reminds me of a club near where i live,so it cracks me up when i see that scene !,i havent been for ages,and,unfortunately,some girls where i live are like Rita and Sue.I'm from a town in Lancashire.I dont like people like that in reality,to be honest,but this film is funny !.I've also known men like Bob and Sue's dad too !.So that makes me laugh aswell !.This film is taking the mickey out of them really,and you can see why it's easy to make fun of them !.

I can see why the film caused alot of controversy aswell as some people dont like those kinds of people in reality anyway,or if anyone felt like it was them being portrayed in the film,they could feel offended.Whereas really,it's their behaviour that's offensive !.

Sorry,i know i went off topic there !.These are my favourite lines :

" Watch me bleeding ornaments ! "

" Dont you stick your oar in or i'll *beep* flatten ya ,ya bastard ! ".Lol !.

" I've done some things ".

" I thought I were great ! ".

Also, the way Michelle says " I'll turn it off in a minute, love ", meaning the lamp lol, makes me laugh too.

I agree with the post above mine too !. It's hilarious.
