Funboys to return for four more episodes
- Funboys Series 2 has been confirmed by BBC Three. Four new episodes are due to be made
- "We've learned nothing, grown less and legally can't be left alone. Funboys forever"
A second series of Funboys has been confirmed by BBC Three, with four new episodes set to go into production.
Ryan Dylan, Rian Lennon and Lee R James will return as Callum, Jordan and Lorcan, with the episodes again written by Dylan and Lennon.
Talking about the premise, the BBC says: "Funboys is a show where frigids get their first kiss. Pigs fly in the sky. Three chubby little lads frolick fields, navigate life's dramas, and learn how funboys become funmen. Ready to put it all on the line and die a horrific jumping death for the sake of friendship, these are a group of boys who understand the healing power of touch; touching hearts, themselves, the nation. And if you think for one second they're afraid to talk to each other about their feelings just because they're guys, prepare to have your f*cking lid blown off."
Ryan Dylan says: "Series 2 is here. We've learned nothing, grown less and legally can't be left alone. Funboys forever."
Rian Lennon adds: "Our show is like what if the Teletubbies took off the dang suits and got real for a second. We don't pull punches, we've written a show that's hard as rocks. And if you don't like it you can jog the frigging hell on."
Executive producer Simon Mayhew-Archer comments simply: "We go again."
Commissioner Eddie Doyle notes: "It's a real treat to be able to serve audiences another portion of Funboys with Ryan, Rian and Lee. This backs our commitment to giving a platform to new comedy voices and local talent, and we can't wait to see what the boys from Ballymacnoose have up their sleeves for Series 2."
