Small axe. 08:47 - Nov 16 with 4444 views | Paddyhoops | Brilliant , true story drama played out a stones throw from Loftus Road. The police and judicial system don't come out of it well. However, spoiler alert, a happy ending of sorts!! | | | | |

Small axe. on 12:58 - Nov 16 by Juzzie | I recorded it and will look forward to watching it. I was born and grew up around there and I think a lot of the film is based from around when I was born or a few years after so my awareness of it was much later, probably late 70's. I remember often walking down Westbourne Park Road towards Portobello Road and there were always two policemen standing on the opposite corner practically in the doorway of the launderette (which I think is now a corner shop convenience store). The 'word' was that the Mangrove was a drug dealing place but it was never substantiated (and the owner was anti-drugs), which is what I guess the film is about. |
the whole street was awash, if you were desperate enough and wanted to give up your money for a piece of inner tube, or a bag of seeds:) | | | |
