Centred on age-old themes of corruption and power politics, the series' hard-edged realism and trenchant humour made it a huge success on its original screening. With grittily authentic location scenes, from strip clubs to council chambers, the series is also notable for its bold and unconventional casting: comedian and Bullseye host Jim Bowen makes his TV drama debut, and former wrestling champion Johnny Allan plays Craig's industry rival. James Faulkner and Lindsay Duncan - foreshadowing her later role in the similarly hard-hitting GBH - also appear in this superb six-part series originally screened in 1982. From small beginnings, Tom Craig reaches a position where he controls most of the plum sites in the fictional Midlands city of Slatterly. To get there, he uses every trick in the book; unscrupulous city councillors, planning department officials and local businessmen are all pawns to be bought and sold. Craig's adversaries include the ruthless John Roman, head of a rival firm with a personal grudge against him, and Tory council leader Maurice Taylor, who is determined to ensure that Slatterly hall not be susceptible to accusations of bribery and corruption. ...Muck \u0026amp; Brass - Complete Series - 2-DVD Set ( Muck and Brass )","brand":"Network","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53805422870870,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_5027626318345_1.jpg?v=1781813304","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/kanievska-marek-muck-and-brass-the-complete-series-5027626318345","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
