Poor old 'Zorplo' simply doesn't get it. This is a genuinely entertaining film, brilliantly scripted, staged and acted, and it captures perfectly not just the mood of the times but also the madness of teenage obsession. As a 60-something male and admitted Spurs supporter, I loved the film the first time I saw it many years ago and I've seen it several times since, never enjoying it any less. It's a wonderful example of British film making at its best, so much better than the modern crash-bang-wallop offerings which seem to believe that loads of nudity and foul language make up for an absence of any real story, acting, humour or irony. Anyone with a Bruce Willis fixation probably won't like it; anyone who likes genuinely good films certainly will.

What a glaring inaccuracy ianlouisiana! This was written by Julie WELCH, NOT Julie Burchill - completely different person, albeit a journalist. I believe Burchill wrote for the music press originally before going on to work in other fields. Get your facts right!Also IMHO this is not a patch on P'tang Yang Kipperbang; nowhere near as good in any way, shape or form. Absolutely NOT! In fact it's pretty crap all round with a fifth rate cast. A waste of everyone's time and no I don't support a rival team or have any particularly strong views on football. It's on Film 4 on a Monday afternoon and it's BORING! Furthermore it is inaccurate in saying that Spurs were the first team to win the 'double' as Preston North End had done so in the previous century and another club also had;their name escapes me.

I have a copy of this and it evokes memories of an earlier time when football meant more than just money. It is a tale of four girls passion for one particular football club and their excitement as the season draws to a close at the prospect of doing the double! It is a coming of age tale which reflects the lives of the four girls but one in particular as her family structure starts to disintegrate. Set at the beginning of the sixties it captures perfectly the time period and there is of course the guest appearance by Danny Blanchflower the Spurs legend. If you get the opportunity to see this - take it! It will make you smile.

I saw this once many years ago on Channel 4, and was mesmerized - it hasn't been on since, but luckily I tracked down a timecode copy! The film itself sums up perfectly what it is like to support the greatest football team in the world. The 61 Spurs Double side that played with a style never before seen or matched since. The film centres on Julia and her friends who follow passionately Spurs through this historic season, and it culminates in their attempts to watch the FA Cup Final. The acting from the cast is superb, and it both funny and emotional. If ever this is on TV again, I recommend that you watch it. I just wish I was alive during the Glory Glory Days to experience it as well.
