My Left Nut

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

I love all local films / series here in Ireland and this one is no different, it really hit the nail on the head on illustrating teen relationships and the character betrayal of a mother raising three kids was perfect.

7 / 10!

As a 58-year-old American male, I'm not exactly the target market for this show. But I absolutely loved it. The right combination of comedy, drama, and pathos, plus some top-notch acting. I really hope there'll be a second series. The whole cast is great, but it's always a treat to see Jay Duffy. Being a fan of his dad, and watching him throughout the years, it's nice to be able to follow a young actor to maturity. Well done all around!

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.

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.
