It's a good representation of Northern / Manchester housing estates. If you can get past the thought of being p***ed off with the characters it's pretty funny!

Shameless is my favourite programme. Is Marty the guy with tourettes in it yet? He is my favourite character.
Yes The Gallaghers and all their social problems are the epitome of British life

The sad thing is, I work for Fujitsu across the road from there. It is exactly as viewed on Shameless. You can't go to the shop on your own, the local pub has bullet holes in the window and we are regularly having local kids running into our place and swiping laptops, even though we have 24/7 security and numerous security cameras.

Good news is though that we are moving sites.......to the town that has just officially been voted the roughest in Britain......can't wait!

Default Re: Shameless.

Get the violin out.......I grew up in a rough area of Bradford/UK although i didn't know it at the time cos it was my little world, and my (late) dad was an alcaholic so i can totally relate to this program in some ways.

The close knit group and the colourfull characters. Everyone knows someone that can get anything you want etc. Its not far from real life in the bum hole parts of the UK.

It is so so funny! A must see. But if you've never had to mix with these kind of people i can understand how you think its crap!

Good to see it from an ousider point of view.
