Recently a number of fellow Lyons (including our most famous member, Mani of Stone Roses and Primal Scream fame) were jammy enough to make it on to the set of Channel 4’s Shameless as extras in an episode with a mod vs rockers theme. If I hadn’t been busy gallivanting I might have got in on the action myself, doh.
It’s episode 9 which should mean it gets an airing on the 23rd March so tune in to see some smart scoots and the lads in leathers getting what for. There’s a few photos below to wet your whistle and some more are available on a friend’s YouTube feed here:
Claire Dodd from the club assures me that the bloke who plays Frank Gallagher (David Threlfall) is a very well spoken chap which in my book makes him a proper actor rather than just someone who sounds exactly like they do on the telly, off the telly. Well there you go.

The Lyons outside a boozer, well there’s a rarity
Posing on scooters incurs greater costs due to the purchase of replacement centre stands, it’s worth it though
Those greasers look a bit outnumbered to me
