Absolutely agree. Brilliant writing from David Nobbs. Recently bought the DVD boxed set. A bargain at £13.99 from Play.com.

I think he got the inspiration for the series from the novel 'A Diary of a Nobody' by the Grossmiths. I am sure I read that somewhere.

I think a cliche in all the papers is pointing out that he used to work for his dads carpet company!

Not a cliche but another thing that Hatton says in every interview is "believe you me....".

Yeah he does roll out the cliches, ill give you that Lad, but he's a personable bloke and id rather listen to him banter away more that almost anyone else in boxing
Also i say "believe you me" when i'm talking to someone from the social underclasses, like a builder or a footballer, for example
