What happened to Neil from the UP series?

Neil spent much of his twenties and early thirties a homeless drifter; after moving to Scotland he eventually moved into a council house in the Shetland Islands, where he wrote and appeared in a local pantomime. By the time of 42 Up he was back in London and stayed temporarily in Bruce’s flat.

Will there be a 70up?

Apted’s subjects will all be 70 when the next “Up” film comes out in 2026, and so (gulp) will I. That would be the tenth film in the series, spanning from “Seven Up!” to “70 Up,” and it occurs to me that it might be the ideal place to stop the project.

Will the Up series continue without Michael Apted?

Apted knew that this would be his last edition of The Up Series, telling Lewis-Kraus, “I’m not going to be well enough to make another of these.” Although Apted for years said that the project would not carry on without him, in one of his final Q&As he acknowledged that it could.
