Jaysis, Moone Boy must be AMAZING, it's being commissioned for a second series before the first series even airs. If I'm ever privileged enough to meet Chris O'Dowd, I'm going to request he rubs off me for a bit.
His semi-autobiographical comedy is set in a central bowl town (Boyle, Roscommon) and centres around an 11-year-old boy and his special imaginary mate, Sean Murphy, portrayed by O'Dowd. Glean whatever presumptions you wish regarding Chris's childhood from the prior statement.
Series one of Moone Boy, made by Steve Coogan's Baby Cow Productions (which explains his presence on set, but not the teef) will air on SKY 1 some point in the near(ish) future. That being September. Expect Deirdre O'Kane dressed as a saucy nurse and Johnny Vegas in a romper suit.
