  • Begby is offered because he screams through much of the movie, though the performance is not criticized.
  • Irvine Welsh is jokingly chosen because his two scenes sometimes hold on an extra look toward the camera.

  • Keith Allen is nominated for the final drug dealer, extending the kind of role he played in Shallow Grave.
  • Keith Allen is identified as Lily and Alfie Allen’s father and described as a comedian, actor, and musician.
  • The performer whose name is transcribed as Peter Mullen is recognized on rewatch after later roles in Top of the Lake, Ozark, The Underground Railroad, and Quarry.
  • His dealer serves heroin like a restaurant meal and handles Renton’s overdose without panic.
  • A deleted hospital scene is described in which Mother Superior has lost a leg and says pretending to be a Falklands veteran earns more than heroin dealing.
  • Irvine Welsh is proposed for his brief appearance as Mikey Forrester.
