I'm looking for an early Channel 4 tv show - i think it was called "Made in Britain" there was these 2 cockney blokes, one was black and one was white, and each show was an hour long, a bit like minder (kind of)

also was "Big Deal" (ray brooks poker/gambling tv series) ever released on video at all?

I don't have it myself but I think the show you are looking for is Prospects (1986) starring the late Gary Olsen. http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0134259/

Default Made In Britain

What your looking for is film released by Film Four. Its stars Tim Roth in his first ever film and one of his best performances

Hope that helps!

It wasn't Made in Britain as that was about a racist skin head who just happened to meet up with a black kid. As it was an Alan Clarke play, I feel it was more likely to be a BBC production. It was made in 1982, just when Channel 4 was being set up.

Anyway, read the write up on IMDB and make your own mind up.

Made in Britain (1982) (TV)
