Bucking the usual BBC3 trend for hand-to-mouth budgets and scruffy single sets, this has a massive cast, gorgeous houses you'll want to nick decorating tips off and its low-level smut is cushioned by some genuinely LOL-worthy moments.
Setting its stall midway between the cringe comedy of The Inbetweeners and too-cool-for-school Skins, it stars two ex-EastEnders: Scarlett Alice Johnson, who you definitely won't recognise as Vicki Fowler, and Emer Kenny (minus Zsa Zsa's blue hair extensions and stroppiness) who you probably will, as well as newcomer Yasmin Paige.
On the boys' team are Dylan Edwards and Sean Michael Verey.
I could tell you which pair of teens end up expecting a baby by the end of this episode, but that would spoil the surprise.
A second series has already been commissioned. Quite right, too.
Jane Simon, The Mirror, 23rd February 2012BBC Three's comedies are often more miss than hit but you suspect Chris Reddy's new six-parter is a winner. A likeable cast and a witty, knowing script play out a storyline which opens with 16-year-old Jamie (Sean Michael Verey) and maladroit mate Mike (Dylan Edwards) heading for a post-exam party. Nervous Jamie is seduced by 18-year-old Laura (Scarlett Alice Johnson) with unexpected consequences.
