Series 1
Cast and Characters

TONY (Nicholas Hoult)
The best-looking, most popular boy in town, Tony’s a born leader, always whipping his crew off on a new mission. Likes a laugh; always at someone else’s expense.

SID (Mike Bailey)
Poor Sid. A virgin, no confidence, but forever lusting after his best mate’s gorgeous girlfriend while said best friend Tony plays him like a fool. But Sid’s cleverer than he thinks. He’ll get the girl of his dreams, eventually. It’s just not the girl he thinks.

MICHELLE (April Pearson)
Tony’s girlfriend ‘Nips’ is just as you’d expect. She’s drop dead gorgeous with a quick wit that keeps everyone on their toes - everyone except Tony that is - he runs rings around her. And she knows it.

CASSIE (Hannah Murray)
A total nutter, but magic with it. A self-harming anorexic with zero self-esteem and a heart of gold.

CHRIS (Joe Dempsie)
Always game for a laugh, Chris will smoke/ screw/ rob/ snort anything. But nothing stops him getting to his psychology class because nothing gets him going quite like his teacher, Angie.

JAL (Larissa Wilson)
Hands down the most talented young classical clarinet player in the country. Super bright, nothing gets past Jal. Especially not the way Tony treats her best friend Michelle.

MAXXIE (Mitch Hewer)
Magic on his feet and a whiz with his hands, Maxxie can have any boy he wants. And he wants them all.

ANWAR (Dev Patel)
Anwar’s family want him to study the Koran, and most definitely not drink, or smoke, or have sex. Anwar likes tequila, dope, pills and breasts. End of.

EFFY (Kaya Scodelario)
Tony’s sister tends to keep her mouth shut, but gets up to more than you’d care to know about. Tony loves her to bits, even though she drives him mad.

ABIGAIL (Georgina Moffat)
Dead posh, pretty and pumped full of prescription medication, Abigail lives in a world of imported carpets, private school and constant therapy. Just think of all the fun Tony could have with her.
