Infos

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! GBH was a seven-part British television drama written by Alan Bleasdale, made by independent production company G.B.H. (Films) and shown in the summer of 1991 on Channel 4, and repeated in July-August 2006 on More4. The central characters were Michael Murray (played by Robert Lindsay), the Militant Labour leader of an unnamed city council in the North of England and Jim Nelson (played by Michael Palin), the headmaster of a school for disturbed children. The series was controversial partly because the character of Murray appeared to be based on Derek Hatton, the real-life former Deputy Leader of Liverpool City Council - indeed in an interview included in the G.B.H. DVD boxed set Bleasdale recounts an accidental meeting with Hatton, before the series had even been recorded, in which the latter indicates that he has caught wind of Bleasdale's intentions, but does not mind as long as the actor playing him is "handsome".
