Channel 4 has released a trailer for the third and final series of Big Boys, Jack Rooke’s semi-autobiographical sitcom.

The younger version of Jack – played by Dylan Llewellyn (Derry Girls) – and Danny (Jon Pointing, A Whole Lifetime with Jamie Demetriou) are dealing with their last year of university. Dissertation deadlines and the real world loom, but Jack’s got bigger fish to fry. It might not be easy being gay, but turns out it’s even harder being an X-Factor fan.

“They replaced Louis [Walsh] with Rita Ora,” he moans in the trailer.

“This country has gone to pot!” Danny concurs.

The first series of the show followed Jack and Danny as they navigated their first year of uni. Jack was dealing with the death of his dad and exploring his sexuality for the first time. Danny, on the other hand, was mostly on the pull, or trying to be, as much as his antidepressants would allow. Now, with graduation around the corner, their unlikely friendship will be tested like never before.

Camille Coduri (Doctor Who) and Harriet Webb (I May Destroy You) return as Peggy, Jack’s mum, and Shannon, Jack’s cousin.

The final series of Big Boys will air on Channel 4 in February.
