Nearly ten years ago, Shane Meadow's cult film This Is England hit cinemas and made waves in the film industry.

Its shocking story line, loosely based on Shane's childhood, depicted the tough times he went through after his dad died in the Falklands War, and how life was for working class skinheads in Thatcher's Britain.

Years after the initial success of the film, a four-part television series aired on Channel 4 called This Is England '86.

The series was yet again successful, paying closer attention to the minor characters from the movie.

This Is England '88 and This Is England '90 followed, and everyone fell in love with characters such as Woody, Lol, Harvey and Gadget.

What everyone thought would be the last installment in the series, This Is England '90, which was based on 90s rave culture, might not be the final thing for TIE.

Shane Meadows has announced that there might yet be another film to come.

According to The Sun, the filmmaker said: "There is one This Is England left. I've got one last idea for This Is England but as a film that can be split as a hybrid - because it started in cinemas and ended up on TV, I would love to finish off with one feature-length episode people can watch in the cinema or on TV the same night."

In the past, Shane and the cast have made it clear that they have never considered anything to do with This Is England as work, but rather as a good time with mates.

Because of this, Shane reckons that everyone would be well up for giving it one last hurrah.

He said: "I know the desire is there from me and I'm pretty sure the cast, all of us, don't see this as a job, we see this as a summer holiday. It's tricky getting everyone together but I'm sure we can."

Make this happen please, Shane!
