Screen Two: Streetlife (1995)
Season 12, Episode 3
8/10
It's tough on the streets
27 September 2000
This gritty drama from BBC Wales begins with two funny, smutty jokes but the mood soon darkens with heroin addiction, sordid, depraved lives. Featuring a sensational performance from Helen McCrory as the exuberant, optimistic Josie.

Surprisingly for such material there are only a couple of FLW's, no nudity and hardly a sex scene or any violence.

The sun is always shining in Pontypridd, there are songs on the soundtrack from Annie Lennox, "Streetlife" is a powerful experience.
