Meantime is a 1983 British comedy-drama television film directed by Mike Leigh and produced by Central Television for Channel 4. It stars Tim Roth, Phil Daniels and Gary Oldman. It was shown in 1983 at the London Film Festival and on Channel 4 and at the 1984 Berlin International Film Festival. According to the critic Michael Coveney, "the sapping, debilitating and demeaning state of unemployment, the futile sense of waste, has not been more poignantly, or poetically, expressed in any other film of the period."[2]
