Funboys: Trailer, certificate and where to watch
Growing pains for three young men in Northern Ireland
Year: 2023-
Certificate: 15
A short four-part series spun out from a pilot comedy first shown in 2023, this is set in a small town in Northern Ireland and follows friends Callum, Jordan and Lorcan (Ryan Dylan, Rian Lennon and Lee Dobbin) who are not life's winners. They are either bored, whining or in hiding.
With a fly-on-the-wall approach, the naturalistic style is familiar from shows like This Country, and it makes a similar virtue of friendship and outsider status as these three grapple with what it means to be young men in a modern Northern Ireland, where religion plays its part alongside sex and video games. (Four episodes, plus pilot)
