BBC Four and iPlayer are celebrating the 30th anniversary of the landmark drama This Life, inviting viewers to revisit a series that captured the spirit of a generation and left a lasting mark on British television.<\/p>\n
First broadcast in 1996, This Life followed a group of young lawyers sharing a house in south London as they navigated friendship, ambition and the complexities of their twenties.<\/p>\n
Created by Amy Jenkins, the series featured a cast including Daniela Nardini, Andrew Lincoln, Jack Davenport, Amita Dhiri and Jason Hughes, whose fresh, raw and unfiltered performances helped establish the drama as a cultural touchstone and one of the defining series of the decade. Three decades on, its characters, energy and unapologetic honesty remain central to the cultural memory of the 1990s.<\/p>\n
On Wednesday 18 March, 30 years to the day since its debut, Daniela Nardini will introduce the start of a repeat run of series one on BBC Four at 10pm with both series 1 and 2 and the +10 year reunion special all available on iPlayer from 6am the same day.<\/p>\n
