[Music] That Bros documentary

[Kinky Gerbil]

I can’t believe just how big Matt Is in Vegas.

How did he even get that gig!

Interesting replies. I won't bore people with all the reasons why I found it endearing, but the key prerequite to enjoying the spectacle is probably that I brought no baggage to the viewing; I was completely out of the music and entertainment loop between 1986 and 1992. I heard WWIBF on the radio, and I have it on my iPOD but I knew nothing about Bros, how they went from teenybop heartthrobs to the equivalent of 70 Gwen Party (as in 'they are shit, but not as bad as 70 Gwen Party') overnight. Mrs T is in the same boat of ignorance. So we just took it on face value without any preconceptions (apart from the anticipation of an hilarious car crash, as advertised).

So...again without reviewing every utterance, yes, the singer is a bit of a prat with his silly aphorisms, and ludicrous rewriting of his yoof, but he seemed quite sweet. The drummer clearly quit the group because he felt belittled by the singer, and his attempts to assert himelf during rehearsals were understandable. Anyone who has had a frought relationship with a sibling or partner will understand the dish even if they don't recognise all the ingredients.

And it had a happy ending. What's not to like

Haha! I’m sure they did. London boys!? They grew up in Surrey. Ragamuffins, brilliant. That’s made my day.

I enjoyed it, great entertainment, I had no love at all for Bros or Brosettes when I was a 14yr old bit love a bit of eighties nostalgia.

Matt has some serious issues to deal with.

Truly wonderful. I can’t believe this wasn’t a spoof. They’ve out Brented Brent.

No happy ending and being twins make them more than just siblings!

BTW Your attempt at being humorous doesn’t suit you, it’s like your wife has hacked your account and pretending to be you!

Did you get early release for good behaviour?

Watched this at the weekend after the recommendations on here. Those boys clearly have some issues and watching through this, it was like Spinal Tap at times.

A friend of mine was at the official screening of this and he thought it was a spoof until he spoke to some of the team behind it afterwards. Also told us that the Bros fans who seemed to turn up everywhere are advised in advance where the boys will be to make sure they feel loved!

What utter bollocks. It was a touching and beautifully made fly on the wall documentary. The two brothers were lovely. Well done, them.

Agreed.

It can't be healthy to receive that level of adulation and have the twin thing going on as well. Some parts looked too stage-managed and too knowing but I enjoyed it. Who knew they were as big as they clearly were.

I assumed that. Fair enough I suppose. The scenes at Heathrow were sweet in a way. But back in the day the adulation wasn't stage-managed.

Matt: "BA have always been so welcoming to me"
Air Hostess "We're not ready for you yet"
Matt "They're not ready for me yet"

Stunning

Saw them at the brighton centre and it was a great gig tbh.
