Read our privacy policy Shane Meadows has said that he wants to return to his acclaimed This Is England series with a new instalment, set around the turn of the millennium. During a YouTube vlog in discussion with Andrew Shim, who played Milky in the film and Channel 4 series, Meadows said: “I don’t know when but I’ve got This Is England ’00 in my head, the millennium one, because I sort of thought it would be nice, because when did we shoot the last one? “So, you’re obviously five years away and I don’t massively want to copy the film ideas, but if I went back I’d love to do a millennium one.” This Is England started out as a film in 2006, before being adapted into a sequel TV series in 2010 called This is England ‘86. Andy Ellis, who plays Gadget, told UniLad: “Gadget at 30 probably still hasn’t grown up, I can imagine he’s well into conspiracy theories like the millennium bug and the predictions of the world ending.
