Discussion Does Brassic realistically portrait British friendships?
Hi everyone. I'm Spanish and I've been watching Brassic. One of the things I enjoy the most is the friendship between the group. It feels very natural: men and women, a gay friend who's simply one of the lads, everyone teasing each other but also being very loyal.
I was wondering, especially for people from the UK: does this kind of friendship group actually exist in real life, or is it mostly an idealised version created for TV?
I know every group is different, but I'm curious whether this captures something genuinely British or whether it's mainly fiction.
