Changing Ends: Premiere ( Thursday 1 June 2023)
Changing Ends: Premiere airs Thursday 1 June 2023 on
The BAFTA-winning Alan Carr and the Scottish BAFTA and RTS-winning Simon Carlyle (Two Doors Down) bring us Changing Ends, which is based on Alan’s own life as the son of a fourth-division football manager growing up in Northampton in the 1980s.
Alan will star in the series as himself in the present, while Oliver Savell (Belfast) will play a younger version of Alan. Taylor Fay will play Alan’s younger brother Gary, and Shaun Dooley and Nancy Sullivan will play Alan’s parents Graham and Christine.
Playing Alan’s neighbours are Rourke Mooney and Gabby Best as Charlie and Angela along with Harry Peacock as Nigel. David Mumeni as Mr. Chapman and Michael Socha as Adam are among the guest stars.
The comedy series will be more than a journey down memory lane; it will be a love letter to a time and place where things were not always so accepting. Alan’s voyage through puberty, adolescence, and ultimately self-discovery is recounted with tenderness and wit against the backdrop of Thatcher’s Britain. Alan’s experience as a homosexual adolescent in the East Midlands, as displayed in many of his stand-up performances, is a veritable treasure trove with a rich comedic seam, whether it be his sexual awakenings, his daily battle with bullying, or traversing the highs and lows of Fourth division football. It’s about education and family, Kevin Keegan and George Michael, and discovering who you are when your family is Match of the Day and you’re a little bit Miss Marple.
