Channel 4 has finally revealed the future of Big Boys, and fans are freaking out. Back in 2022, TV viewers were first introduced to the British sitcom, which stars Dylan Llewellyn and Jon Pointing as Jack and Danny, respectively, first-year university students who live together in a disused shed on campus.
Set in 2013, Jack is a shy, closeted journalism student coming to terms with his father’s death, and Danny is a confident “lad”-type who tries to drag Jack out of his comfort zone while dealing with his own mental health issues.
Llewellyn’s character is a semi-fictional version of Jack Rooke, who created and wrote the series and serves as narrator. Since its debut, Big Boys has garnered critical acclaim, earning two BAFTA nominations and a Writer’s Guild of Great Britain Award for Best TV Situation Comedy.
In January, fans were finally treated to the dramedy’s third season following an extended hiatus. Picking up where season one left off, the six episodes followed Jack, Danny and their friends Corinne (Izuka Hoyle) and Yemi (Olisa Odele) as they start their second year at Brent University.
