The Who's 1979 album Quadrophenia is transferred to the big screen by director Franc Roddam with a cast of teenagers who would go on to be mainstays of British TV and film for decades to come.
Phil Daniels is Jimmy, a young mod who's entire life is devoted to music, scooters, parties and trying to get the girl - in this case Steph played by Leslie Ash.
Jimmy hopes to find salvation through the scene but a trip to Brighton proves transformative in ways he hadn't expected.
We also talk about football memories, how the mod look is used today, old pubs in South Shields, a terrible meal and loads more.
There's a quiz based on Victorian terminology and for the first time our new closing segment, where we play a song from an unsigned band this week.
This week it's Come On by The Good's Gone - a band from Deal, Kent, named after a Who song and influenced by 60s rock and roll. A perfect first choice then.
To find out more about The Good's Gone, check out the Facebook page here (www.facebook.com/TheGoodIsGone) and on Spotify (https://spoti.fi/3ggFBBV).
If you would like us to feature your band, send the tracks and any credit info to fleacircuspod@gmail.com.
