Films made in Sheffield

[Ally68 10]

Wasn't there a Rockumentary called "Made in Sheffield" about 80's bands that came from Sheffield i.e. Human League etc?

 

Yes, look at post #4

Oh dear, its there clear as day I honestly did look, but obviously not close enough. At least I didn't mention Threads though

Here's what someone needs to do:

 

Hire the Showroom one afternoon/evening and show three of the Sheffield films back to back. Call it Made in Sheffield, and start it with the "City on the move" promotion from the Full Monty. Charge £10 a ticket and donate some of the money to charity (or just keep it all).

I.D., was filmed in Sheffield and Rotherham. Craig Thomas was in that too, albeit a very small hooligan part!
