Blooming marvellous, apart from the bits with the Brookside actors trying to carry off Ambitioso, Supervacuo and Spurio.
Honourable mention goes to Carla Henry as Castiza, Margie Clark as Gloriana, Derek Jacobi as the Duke, and especially Drew Schofield as Carlo, who manages to outshine Chris in a couple of visceral scenes.
However, the stars of the piece are, without a shadow of a doubt, Chumbawamba. Their soundtrack captures the whole post-apocalyptic Scouse nightmare vision perfectly.
