It is on DVD, I watched it again recently.
Sorry I can't loan you the copy I saw Flashy, but it's in Spain now.
The programmes were much better than the book, in my opinion.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed rewatching it.

Re: Oranges are not the only fruit
in the book the girl is called Jeanette (as in the author) but as you put it and i've read reviews on it and they refer to her as Jess, why in the film is she called Jess??

I don't know why the name was changed.
Perhaps because it was supposed to be semi-autobiographical, and because the television programme would reach a wider audience, she wanted to distance herself from the main character.
That didn't really work though, as the national press descended on Accrington, to ask her mother if what had been shown was true.
