British Comedy Guide, 7th June 2023The 50 best TV shows of 2022: No 6 - Big Boys
Jack Rooke's truly special comedy about male friendships and mental health had it all - laughs, tears, 00s cultural references and top-tier sex jokes.
Hollie Richardson, The Guardian, 14th December 2022Big Boys gets Series 2 at Channel 4
Sitcom Big Boys has been commissioned for a second series by Channel 4.
British Comedy Guide, 23rd August 2022Big Boys is a new six-part semi-autobiographical Channel 4 comedy, written and created by comedian Jack Rooke (Happy Man). Directed by Jim Archer, it stars Dylan Llewellyn (James in Derry Girls) as Jack, who is gay, unconfident and floundering in loving co-dependency with his mum (Camille Coduri) after the death of his father.
Finally making it to Brent University, Jack, who has the fashion sense of a particularly outlandish Build-A-Bear creation, befriends the outwardly laddish but mentally fragile Danny (Jon Pointing). The opening double episode rips through fresher campus life ("You can't call yourself working class unless you've burned the roof of your mouth on a Greggs"), and Jack's inaugural LGBTQ+ night out: "You drank poppers?" Big Boys can be a rough, scruffy ride (think Fresh Meat after downing a couple of cut-price wine boxes), but I enjoyed its Tiggerish spirit and full-hearted embrace of difficult themes. Here's a comedy that isn't afraid to bounce into darkness.
