Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Jane Couch MBE, who plays Hairy Mary, is a real-life pioneering female boxer — her casting adds delicious irony to the toughest character protecting two soft boys.

Cultural

The 'shiny' sticker phenomenon specifically references 1990s UK football culture, where Panini 'shinies' were playground currency more valuable than actual money to working-class kids.
