Episode 1
The ups and downs of family life and being a transgender teenager. Second series of the drama by Mark Davies Markham.
How will Amy find her new school, will Gary and Charlotte stay together and will Grandad ever find love? Second series of the drama about a transgender teenager by Mark Davies Markham.
A very ordinary family has come to terms with the less ordinary experience of Amy, who was born as Ben. Amy is nervous about starting senior school, and even more moody as teenage life and the puberty delaying hormone blockers kick in. Her parents, Gary and Charlotte, are struggling with their own relationship and Grandad Ted has his own worries.
This affectionate drama was inspired by real life experiences.
Episode 1:
Amy is adamant she needs red lipstick for her first day at senior school, Charlotte is just as adamant she doesn't. Gary is concerned about a new friend Charlotte has made at the transgender parents support group and Ted is looking for love.
