Review of My Beautiful Laundrette (1985) by Aidan H — 11 Aug 2007
Maybe this was subversive when it came out but now it just looks like a lame Ch4 series that never made it past the pilot episode. Jarring stereotypes abound, ostensibly put there to make us sympathise with the two main protagonists.
Still retains some power and humour but now is as dated as last year's Xmas tree. Extra star for the history lesson.
