Welcome To Essex was written as a comedy but that changed after the third draft.
Welcome To Essex was originally conceived to be a zero budget movie.
There is no original audio in Welcome To Essex. All the dialogue was re-recorded in post production and all other sounds are Foley.
Julian Seger's scenes were cut for running length, despite being one of the biggest and most intricate scenes in the movie. The same thing happened to Seger in World War Z.
The Director's Cut of the movie runs at over 270 minutes.
