TV Series | Dark Comedy, Drama | 15 | UK | Created & Written by Christian Stevens

​

 Four immature school friends explore the troubles and tribulations of adult life whilst attempting to find their unique places in the world and mature into responsible, fully developed adults.​

​

Ed Cameron, an annoyingly short, cheeky, 21-year-old, recently graduated from university and has just moved to London. However, he has absolutely no idea what he wants to do with his life. Since graduating, he has opted to spend his days messing around down the pub with his best mates, Matt Allen, Tom Barter, and Billy Joyce, or as they call him, “Tickles", and watching television while ingesting copious amounts of taramasalata with just about anything he can find. 

 

All is well, and Ed is seemingly content with his post-university lifestyle until, one mid-afternoon,  after a heavy night on the beers, Ed is abruptly awoken by his Father, who informs him that ‘the bank of Mummy & Daddy’ is shut, and it’s time, he grew up and became an independent adult.

 

Despite his initial pontificating, Ed starts job hunting with the hope of discovering his unique place in the world. It's not until he bumps into Lily Hughes, an aspiring writer and old friend from school, whom Ed was head over heels for, that he finally starts to mature into a fully developed adult... or so we are led to believe.
