Coming soon to Channel 4 is a new comic thriller about two misfit teens James and Alyssa and the disastrous road trip of a lifetime called The End Of The F***ing World. It is based on the graphic novel by Charles Forsman, and is going to be shown in 8 episodes. The first will be shown on E4 on Tuesday (24.10.17) and the rest of the episodes will be available on All 4 as a boxset as soon as it has been aired.
James is pretty sure he is a psychopath after killing many animals and deciding he is ready to kill a person. Alyssa befriends him and becomes so blinded by her love for him she doesn't spot the signs. The two embark on a road trip to find Alyssa's absent father, but end up being hunted by the police.
The End Of The F***ing World has dark themes, but also covers more general teen issues and has funny scenes. I recommend it to all older teens, maybe 15+, as it is probably not suitable for some of my younger readers.
Here is the trailer. I think my favourite bit is the dancing!
