"White Gold" on Netflix - faithful to the 80s?

So I just saw that Netlix has a new show about British window salesmen in the 1980s, and it's called White Gold. The dialogue in the trailer seemed a bit modernly snarky (as in, snarky in language that felt very current to our era), so I wanted to ask if anyone else has already watched some of this show.
Does it authentically feel like the 80s? For example, one reason I LOVED "Stranger Things" was how totally un-PC the characters and the writing were in Season 1. It was the 1980s in every way - culturally too, not just in the clothes and car. Everything about "Stranger Things" just bathes in a very different America, and I like that. So I wanted to know if "White Gold" lives up to the same standard - showing us a very different Britain, not just cosmetically. |
