    Funny....and touching

    Absolutely brilliant. Captured the vulnerability of students leaving the nest and going off to uni. Really funny in places and also very touching and emotional. I loved it.

    Exceptional television

    We've been waiting a long time for a kind of coming of age show like this. It has as much heart as it does humour and shows the gay community and its allies as a normal group of people. Not defined by their sexuality.

    Plus the soundtrack is great for anyone who spent their 20,s or 30's around 2010.

    Bloody Wonderful

    What an honest and brave look at young people's challenges and successes around mental health, navigating sexuality and general early adulthood. So cleverly written, kind and absolutely hilarious. I was truly touched by this show.

    Heartfelt, Funny, Life affirming

    Great show, well written, sensitively acted, and overall very very funny.

    The whole cast give this show their all.

    Love it love it love it.

    That is all.

    First episode review

    Big Boys is about a shy kid going to uni and although it has (somewhat-typical for recent Channel Four comedy) Inbetweeners-style humour it has a bit more heart to it than that show and the two leads are allowed to both lean into the silly bawdy humour and yet still be emotionally honest and plausibly genuine.

    I enjoyed episode one a lot and will look forward to binging the rest.
