England’s most notorious football manager Mike Bassett played by Ricky Tomlinson (Royal Family, In the Flesh) is heading back to the big screens with a sequel to the cult classic comedy ‘Mike Bassett – England Manager’ also starring Amanda Redman and am looking forward to this one.
Steve Barron, who directed the first film, will return to oversee the sequel alongside screenwriters Rob Sprackling and John R Smith. Steve is probably best known for directing 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' but comes from a docudrama background having directed a host of musicians such as David Bowie, Michael Jackson and Madonna Steve also directed one of my little known guilty pleasures, a film called 'Electric Dreams' in 1984 of which i know at the very mention of the name can have me humming the title track.
