No Surrender is a 1985 British comedy film, starring Michael Angelis and Ray McAnally.
The film is a black comedy, set in Liverpool on New Year's Eve. The plot focuses on the Irish Catholic and Protestant communities in the city, and the action is seen through the eyes of the manager of a ballroom (night-club for hire) in a rough working class area. The manager (Michael Angelis) is of Greek origin (which leads to some disparaging jokes about 'kebab and chips') and new to the job. He finds out that the previous manager has left a lunatic legacy; before coming to a grisly end, he arranged an elaborate joke on his organised crime employers. He has hired out the hall for New Year's Eve to several groups of senior citizens, including one hardline Irish Catholic Nationalists dressed in costume, one hardline Protestant Unionists and one of people suffering from mental retardation and senile dementia. As a coup de grace, he has also hired a skittish, incompetent magician, played by Elvis Costello, to perform. Bernard Hill plays the club doorman who is ex-French Foreign Legion. DJ Pete Price plays a comedian by the name of Frankie Diamond. The Catholics and Protestants recall their skirmishes and sing provocative songs to each other. The other main character is senior citizen Billy "the Beast" McCracken, a former Loyalist boxer and brawler (with darker deeds also hinted at), played by Ray McAnally. In the midst of all this arrives a Ulster Loyalist terrorist on the run (Mark Mulholland).

Are we comin on to strong
Lyrics to bold to sing along
We've been around way to long to back down
Put us down for what were fighting for
Brush the dirt off well come back for more
Never waiving what we say well hold our ground
We found somethin worth livin for
Hes dropped the bomb hes settled the score
Its just a matter of time till the worlds knee will bow
Fight to the death and well rise above
Saw through the lies and the systems corrupt
Take that white flag and then well burn it to the ground
Raise the white flag and lay our arms down? - NO SURRENDER
Comin out with a bang a guns a blazin - IN YOUR FACE
Back to back dodgin bullets again
The duels on theres no countin to 10
Whose gunna be the first to draw
