Details.
Wiki.
West 10 LDN was a one-off BBC Three youth drama, written and created by Noel Clarke and directed by Menhaj Huda, first broadcast on 10 March 2008. The screenplay was based on the novel Society Within, a short story collection by Courttia Newland. The film was the second collaboration between Clarke and Huda, following their work on Kidulthood, which gave Huda the idea for a television series based upon a similar format. West 10 LDN is set entirely in the fictional Greenside council housing estate in West London, which in reality, is the White City Estate. Ashley Madekwe and Duane Henry served as lead actors for the project.
West 10 LDN was produced by the award-winning Kudos Film & Television, who had enjoyed recent success with Life On Mars, Spooks and Hustle. Tim Cole was assigned as producer and Derek Wax served as executive producer Derek Wax. West 10 LDN was broadcast as part of BBC Three's Drama Pilot Season, in which six different one-hour pilots were broadcast, with the highest-rated going on to be developed into a six-part series.
Although it received critical acclaim from fans of Kidulthood and Adulthood alike, Noel Clarke later confirmed on his official MySpace page that the then controllers of BBC Three, Danny Cohen and Jane Tranter, had made the decision not to commission West 10 LDN into a full series.
