Watched all the episodes last night.
Well done Gripper, nice to see the sights of Newhaven on the screen, Gibbon Road etc :D
I spend a fair few hours at Newhaven FC ( especially in the bar ) I haven't seen Keeley at a match though :wink:

I wonder if anyone else spotted the great George Best putting in an appearance ( not everyone will get this )

Pedant alert- Why were the Newhaven team training on the pitch of their rivals Denton?

Well spotted!

We were due to shoot the training scenes at Fort Road but they had a cup game rearranged.

Denton FC bailed us out at the last minute!

Showed my two boys last night (my youngest mentioned you had been into Seahaven Academy to talk about it) & they thought it was brilliant. My eldest saw a couple of people he knew which he had a chuckle at, including the young lad "Damo Best?" near the beginning who he used to play football with!

That was Bailey Dean. I used to play for Newhaven Under 18's with his Dad. I am old.

About 6 months ago I met with the guys from the Newhaven Regeneration Group. They asked me to make a TV series for them!

Here it is. Seaside Town - out on Amazon Prime in November and if you'd like to support the project on DVD here - www.seasidetown.tv

Enjoy... and if you get a chance to share the trailer that'd be great. x

What age range is this suitable for? Is it appropriate for a 9 year old? Reckon my son would love to watch it.

My son,23, was in the lounge when I put this on and said it is based in Newhaven. He watched a couple of minutes and I said you played against Denton when you were about 7. He said, really. Then went to his room to watch something else. [emoji21]

There is also a framed shirt from the match hanging on the wall in the bar, not sure if it's the one Best was wearing in the game.

http://www.ournewhaven.org.uk/page_id__2374.aspx It was true George Best and Stan Bowles played

I know George Best played in the match, my wife went to the game and has got the programme.
Also there is a photo of Best playing in the match hanging in the Newhaven FC bar.
I have also seen the link from that site, thanks.

I'm just not sure if the shirt hanging in the Newhaven bar was Best's match worn shirt, or it's just another players shirt from the same game.

I went to the game too. Oddly my only memory of it was Tommy Boyd, who's radio show I was obsessed with at the time, came on as a sub!
