The comedy about a group of Sheffield steelmakers who had a go at stripping to make some money after they lost their jobs got the city noticed around the world. Now the original cast are back in the city as filming starts on a new series for Disney+, following the original characters in the present day.
Stars including Robert Carlyle, Mark Addy and Tom Wilkinson return – as well as Sheffield actor Wim Snape, who plays Nathan, the son of Robert’s character Gaz.
Here we take a look back at some of the city film locations, as well as the Sheffielders who have done their own Full Monty shows over the years!
