The Film: Britain's depressed coal community is the backdrop for this comedy, which finds a brass band struggling with the likely end of their run.

Unfairly compared to The Full Monty (which followed the next year), Brassed is a lightweight affair, but still squeezes some laughs out of the concept and solid turns from Pete Postlethwaite and Stephen Tompkinson

The Role: Showing off some of his charm as band-member Andy, who finds his world in turmoil when old flame Gloria (Tara Fitzgerald) returns. Can she save their musical fun?

Tackle Out? Strictly backside for this one.
