So, after Extras. The ending made me think of Billy Liar - it may have been a deliberate evocation. Ricky and Stephen's film is about growing up and moving on, and class. They picked a cinematographer who knew his shit in Remy Adefarasin, who films with a sort of seventies palette in widescreen.
Our trio of lads are Tom Hughes, Christian Cooke and Jack Doolan. With Ralph Fiennes, Matthew Goode, Steve Spiers, Emily Watson, Julia Davis, Ricky Gervais, Burn Gorman, Anne Reid.. and where are my manners? Felicity Jones, by no means her debut. That was in The Treasure Seekers in 1996, aged twelve. And what happened to Servants, a TV mini series set in the 1850s?
Ricky and Anne's characters are particularly well written as Cooke's father and grandmother.

None of it's filmed in Reading. The railways station is actually in Loughborough!
