The second series of this fine sitcom about teen parenthood continues with young Laura (Scarlett Alice Johnson) receiving a work placement. As a result she insists on father Jamie (Sean Michael Verey) babysitting for their child, Emily. But Jamie has an exam. Chaos ensues when Jamie decides to leave Emily with inexperienced childminders Mike (Dylan Edwards) and Beth (Yasmin Paige).

Pramface: the one teen parenting TV programme to watch

Like the film Juno, Pramface - despite its insulting name - portrays real teen parenthood, and is a must-watch for anyone who wants to know what it's really like to be a young mother, says Prymface.

More from the second series of Pramface, and now that Laura is alone with the baby, she's hoping that she'll start meeting more mums to break up her feelings of loneliness. Her first foray into such matters doesn't go well, ending in a bit of a tame mugging situation at the hands of some rough types in the park. The smug yummy mummies she starts stalking are no better either. Meanwhile, Alan, ignored by his family, hires Keith to be his driver. They bond over pool hustling and lying to their wives.

Interview with the stars of Pramface

Kicking off comedy on BBC Three for 2013 was Pramface. The day after, I met up with Scarlett Alice Johnson and Sean Michael Verey who play Laura and Jamie, to see what they had to say about the upcoming series.

Things I enjoyed most about BBC3's returning comedy Pramface:

1. Scarlett Alice Johnson's ongoing transformation from EastEnders disaster into fine comic actress.

2. The fact that Angus Deayton was happy to walk around in his boxer shorts. Hardly the first time Angus has been spotted with his trousers down etc, etc.

Jamie and Laura are now struggling with the onset of parenthood. But there's nothing particularly cool going on here. The jokes are more 'heard it before' than 'tee-hee', and the gross-out atmosphere doesn't quite stand up to the likes of The Inbetweeners. Sadly it seems this particular sprog was probably born on a Wednesday.

Pramface returns for a second series, and with an added cast-member. Having birthed the result of her fling with Jamie, Laura gets to the business of being a mother, ducking the snide remarks of family members and the incompetence of the father of her child. It proves a juggling act as the christening approaches, with Jamie's pious extended family coming in from Ireland and a tense flashpoint smouldering away that, obviously, has to ignite in the church. It's as clunky as ever, but Anna Chancellor is a steadying influence, and Scarlett Alice Johnson plays the frazzled new mum with aplomb.

Funny, charming and truthful, Pramface draws to a close. Thanks to sharp characters and Chris Reddy's pitch-perfect script, it has become one of BBC Three's best comedies. Heavily pregnant Laura (Scarlett Alice Johnson) is bored of being stuck at home and convinces Jamie (Sean Michael Verey) to take her shopping. Mike (Dylan Edwards) decides to put the pot from a charity run to a less charitable cause - his sex life - but is rumbled by Beth (Yasmin Paige). Meanwhile, Keith (Ben Crompton) and Sandra (Bronagh Gallagher) go on a revelatory holiday.
