The third episode of the triology.This episode describes a redemption of sorts for three main characters. In doing so, it reveals or implies all of the significant hidden plot points in the previous two episodes; it is for this reason that flashbacks are much more prevalent here than in episode two. It also shows light on the ominous and seemingly ubiquitous figure of Reverend Martin Laws from Fitzwilliam (Peter Mullan), who had appeared all throughout the series.

Anyone seen this? Think it was aired on c4 at some stage last year, getting a (very limited) cinema release in the US at the minute.

Just watched 1974, absolute cracker!

They skipped the second book for the adapations. Was this a wise move?

There is a lot of stuff left out, the books are amazing! David Peace is a brilliant writer.
