}}England Expects is a 2004 British television movie made by BBC Scotland.[1] It stars Steven Mackintosh, Keith Barron, Susan Vidler, Sadie Thompson, Camille Coduri, Karl Johnson, Preeya Kalidas, Nitin Ganatra and Sadiqul Islam. It was written by Frank Deasy, produced by Ruth Caleb and directed by Tony Smith. Nick Ryan, journalist and author of an exposé into far-right groups, worldwide (Homeland: Into a World of Hate[2] ), was the show's creative producer.[3]

Synopsis

The story follows former football hooligan Ray Knight (Steven Mackintosh), a normal everyday family man who works as a security guard at a financial trading company in Canary Wharf, the symbol of corporate wealth which looms high over the impoverished communities below. Newfound social responsibilities are trampled underfoot when Ray's racist past is revived amid tensions between whites and Asians jostling for position on the council housing list. Among those who are wanting to be rehoused in a new development is Ray's alcoholic ex-wife Sadie (Camille Coduri), and his teenage daughter Nikki (Sadie Thompson). After a failed attempt to rehouse Sadie and Nikki, and soon discovering that Nikki is involved in heroin addiction, Ray's anger drives him to re-join a BNP organisation led by his old friend Larry Knowles (Keith Barron).

Production notes

The film's main objective is to explore the far-right and issues of racism.
