What is the Channel 4 show about?
Big Boys is a silly, sweet comedy about two boys – Jack and Dylan – from very different ends of the “spectrum of masculinity” who become best mates at Brent Uni Freshers Week 2013.
Living in an ex-classroom shed on campus, the boys get thrown together by the enigmatic Jules , the head of the SU who was once a student herself a decade ago and has just never, ever, left.

They soon meet Corine, a sharp, study-centric Scot who’s also learning to let her hair down and Yemi, the savvy fashion-kid who at 19 has already seen it all, done it all and begrudgingly guides this gang of misfits through Freshers and beyond.
Viewers follow their first year at Brent Uni as they explore, experiment and try to discover themselves, helping one another along the way.
