About The Royle Family
The Royle Family is a popular, BAFTA award-winning television comedy drama produced by Granada Television for the BBC, which ran for three series between 1998 and 2000, with a special episode in late 2006 and another in 2008. It concerns the lives of a working class Manchester family, the Royles. The series is remarkable for its simple production and realistic portrayal of working-class family life at the turn of the millennium. It, therefore, has something in common with kitchen sink drama. The scripts contain often banal conversations and episodes commonly revolve around a family occasion, such as the marriage of the family's daughter Denise, the birth of her first child, and the child's christening. All the episodes take place in the Royles' home, which appears to be a typical British council house or similar; most centre on the telly-centric living room. The first series of the show was written by Caroline Aherne and Craig Cash, who also acted in it, along with poet and comedian Henry Normal. In the second series Aherne and Cash were joined by Carmel Morgan, and finally the third series was written by Aherne and Cash alone.
