My Left Nut

I've just watched this and was pleasantly surprised. The story was well told and the actors were very believable and engaging. It made you laugh cry and care about what was happening to the characters. Everyone involved must have a bright future.

For the the first 15 minutes of episode 1, I thought it was going to be like an Irish version of The Inbetweeners. How wrong could I be! Well done to the BBC in covering a sensitive topic. Not just the possibility of teenage testicular cancer but the importance of telling friends and family. The acting is excellent, in particular Sinead Keenan who plays the mother. This deserves to be shown on either BBC 1 or 2.

Saw an interview with Michael Patrick on Russel Howard's show about his experience and this show so decided to give it a go. Funny and heartfelt this deals with the subject many male teens and men will have encountered in their lifetime and that it putting off going to the doctor when you have an ailment and the importance not to. In this 3 episode comedy drama the much lengthier story of how Michael put off having a swollen testical looked at when he was a teen is dramatised with comedy and the impact that situation had on his life

Highly recommend this and is essential viewing for teenagers in my opinion

Great show very enjoyable to watch. The cast was great and the overall story was amazing. Would want to see another series but doubt they'd make another one but look forward to seeing the cast in future productions!

Certainly something I was not expecting to binge watch. Thoroughly impressed by this show, particularly the acting which was so well done by the whole cast- it had me fully engaged in their world within minutes of the first episode. Different to many coming of age dramas, this show portrays issues that are so rarely touched on. Scenes between the Mother and Son were so exquisite. And I found the genuine relationships between the boys and also with the girlfriend very touching. Thoroughly recommend- although beware. This may leave you craving more episodes.
