Changing Ends

Extreamly Funny A lot of what i can relate to. Even though i am srait but in school i was extreamly feminate hated football and PE was made to do it .I remember one day getting onto my desk and doing impressions of animals to get laughs out of my class mates who where Bullies .But it worked It never made me popular but for that brief moment i had my class doubled with laughter .Its still made me no friends apart from one or two .. But i found having a sence of humer and using it gained me an advantage ,our school never had a drama class..We need more of this 26+27 mins is too short it needs more episodes like young sheldon 14+18 episodes not 6 could have watched more ..so Alan if you see this well done.

I absolutely love Alan Carr, so I was hoping for good things with this series - and, I got it!

The young lad who is playing a young Alan, is a very talented actor indeed. The comedic timing is perfect, and reminds me of good ol' classic British comedies.

A young Alan shows how important it is to be your true self... no matter how others may judge or perceive you to be. You were meant to be a star Alan!

Overall, this show is sweet, interesting, nostalgic, and full of known British actors. Binge worthy, and definitely the best series I've watched this year. Can't wait to see more! Do yourself a favour, and watch it! It won't disappoint.

Even if you don't like Alan Carr, it's likely you will like this very funny, on point sitcom with the stand up comedian taking us through semi-autobiographical moments in his life.

We see young Alan on his first day at school, being unexpectedly put on the football team (hilarious) faking sickness to avoid an injection (which leads to awkward but very believable bonding with dad) and all manor of japes that keep the audience hooked.

Carr's relationship with his family and few friends are nicely explored without being heavy handed and the humour is kept at an even pace, carefully balanced with tender / low moments but not too many to descend into melodrama.

Co-written by Carr, this show knows how to keep your attention with ideal casting all round, but Oliver Savell as the young Alan deserves particular praise for his stand out, star making performance. It would have been very easy for him to fall into caricature but somehow Savell manages to blend Carr's friendly campness and mix it with the real fears of a young boy as he tries to navigate the impending, uncharted teen years without going over the top and keeping the comedy this side of believable and engaging.

Well done to everyone involved.

Now, when is the second season coming out?

Changing ends is a 2023 British comedy for ITVX. It is a semi autobiographical series from comedian Alan Carr about growing up in Northampton during the 1980s, the son of a professional football manager. My mum was the one who told me to watch this as it was so good. OMG it was brilliant! The storyline was excellent I've not laughed that much, kind of sad in places. First episode was so good and continues through out. Oliver Savell is so perfect in playing a young Alan Carr he deserves award for his performance outstanding and incredible funny. In fact all the cast are good in playing their characters. Very well produced and directed. There don't do much comedies like there use to and changing ends is just so funny. You could watch them over and over again and would still be funny. To much gloom and doom on tv and very depressing stuff so it was nice to watch a light hearted very funny tv series. Changing ends consist of 1 series with 6 episodes and are going to make a 2nd series. Can't wait. If you like comedies then this a must watch it will certainly cheer you up. Best comedy I've seen in awhile. Don't go by the negative comments it's bloody fantastic. Sit back get comfy and get watching this very funny sitcom. It sure is a laugh 😊

It's not perfect, nothing is. It gets 10 because it's as good as you get from this type of nostalgice wishy washy comedy soap.....

How BORING are the reviews whining about it/ Not sure what they're after or what makes them happy, but for me this is perfect eighties nostalgia fora Britain I didn't even grow up in... But Australia was similar, the bloody eighties was odd af no matter where you were..... Sydney back then was like this..

I loved the Football element and how it was so easily brished aside despite being so important to dad.. I loved the mums support and backing of her son no matter what and the dad who backed him too..

Over all it ticked boxes, thoughtful funny and entertaining... if not ten then what?
