My therapist (a close lesbian friend) suggested that Big Boys is subconsciously about me not being able to say a proper goodbye to certain people or periods of my life, and so to give this show a final send-off is a huge honour. I&#8217;ve known the ending since the pilot, and I hope it still represents those first Edinburgh shows but also the collaborative genius of our incredible cast, crew, and creative team. I&#8217;ll be indebted to them always for giving me the funniest, happiest years making <em>Big Boys<\/em> 1-3. Thank you!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Series three will see our gang enter their final year at Brent Uni, with all the ups and downs of dissertations, deadlines, dating and the devastating departure of Louis Walsh from <em>The X-Factor<\/em> (for Jack anyway!)<\/p>\n<p>Peggy and Shannon embark on new romances and never-ending nappy changes, whilst Jack and Danny&#8217;s friendship is tested to its limits as they realize proper adult life is coming. Will the boys still choose each other like before, or will this be the end of the road?<\/p>\n<p><em>Big Boys<\/em> is created and written by Jack Rooke, executive produced by Jack Rooke, Jim Archer, Ash Atalla, and Alex Smith for Roughcut TV, directed by Jim Arche,r and produced by Bertie Peek.
