Brass

Brass is really just actually a British comedy drama show created Channel 4 and eventually by Granada Television for ITV. Set in Utterley, a Lancashire mining town in the 1930s, Brass was a comedy satirising the American supersoaps such as Dallas and Dynasty and the period dramas of the 1970s. Unusually there clearly is no laughter trail and also the humor kept dry, with elaborate word play and subtle comment on popular culture. Brass is northern English slang for"currency" as well as for"effrontery". The show also gleefully parodied the 1977 Granada TV dramatisation of all Dickens' crisis, which also starred Timothy West. The series, produced Julian Roach and by John Stevenson, has been put around two feuding families--the wealthy Hardacres and the inferior, working-class Fairchilds, that lived from the Hardacre empire in a modest terraced house rented. The Hardacre family had been headed by the callous self-made businessman Bradley, who espoused rhetoric whilst picking out different strategies to generate his companies more effective therefore workers could be sacked by him, along with his wife Lady Patience. The pinnacle of the Fairchilds was the stern"Red" Agnes, that spread militant socialist rhetoric across the Hardacre mine, mill along with munitions factory, along with also her doltish, forelock-tugging husband George, who's dominated by his own wife and his own boss. In a twist, Agnes was the mistress of Bradley Hardacre.
