Day Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I have been asked by Derby Theatre to let you know they have a Red Ladder and West Yorkshire Playhouse's production of The Damned United coming to their theatre on Thursday 7 - Saturday 16 April. The show follows Brian Clough's journey from his beloved Derby County to Leeds United, and is adapted from David Peace's novel, and stars Andrew Lancel as the charismatic and controversial Brian Clough. https://www.derbytheatre.co.uk/damned-united Thursday 7th April 7.30pm Friday 8th April 7.30pm Saturday 9th April 2.30pm & 7.30pm Tuesday 12th April 7.30pm Wednesday 13th April 2.30pm & 7.30pm Thursday 14th April 7.30pm Friday 15th April 7.30pm Saturday 16th April 2.30pm & 7.30pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tombo Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Andrew Lancel would be better served playing Paul Clement than Brian Clough... Look at him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 The book is an insult to Clough. Peter Morgan who adapted it for the film did well in salvaging something from it, but if the play's based on Pease's book rather than Morgan's screenplay, I'm out.

Both the book and the film are excellent. I don't think that anyone depicted in either come out of it looking very good but it is only "based on real events" the "impression" that Sheen does of Clough in the film is incredible i would definitely be going if I could.

Some of the book is magnificent (the Derby match reports). Skip the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damned Damned Damned Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Good afternoon all. I've only registered (as Damned Damned Damned) as gesture of goodwill to you all to recommend DC fans go watch The Damned United which is visiting Derby soon. Having just read some of the above comments maybe it's not such a good idea though I'm not in it and have nothing to do with the play but having seen it, I think Rams fans will like it more than the film (which I thought was utter drivel but each to their own eh?) as it is a truer portrayal of Clough & Peter Taylor's relationship rather than the flick which is 'Carry On Clough' in all but name. All the best DDD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcnram Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 The film was full of nonsense (up to the point that I stopped watching it anyway), as bad as the American war films putting them into places that they never were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon_Grooves Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 I thought it was a good film. Good for Derby and Leeds fans with the nostaligic videos etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
