Spike Island is a 2012 British comedy film directed by Mat Whitecross and written by Chris Coghill.

Spike Island premiered on 11 October 2012 at the BFI London Film Festival and was released on DVD on 21 June 2013.

Set in May 1990, the film follows the exploits of five lads: Gary 'Tits' Titchfield, Darren 'Dodge' Hodge, Chris 'Zippy' Weeks, 'Little Gaz' Gareth Barrett and 'Penfold' Andrew Peach.

Meanwhile, Zippy visits the nearby Catalyst Science Discovery Centre (at that point still called The Museum of the Chemical Industry).
