Description
A biographical comedy about Alan Carr's childhood in the 1980s, Changing Ends documents Alan's relationship with his father and friends, as well as his sexuality and femininity. Very much a British Young Sheldon, it is only available on ITVX for some reason, but it will air on ITV soon, I'm sure.

Spotlight Star
If we don't see this young actor nominated for, or even winning, some rising star and young talent awards in the coming years, I'll eat my beret.
It is a perfect casting as young Alan, and Savell creates a flamboyant warmth that truly makes the show a success. A huge future is ahead of this actor, mark my words.
Opinion
I'm struggling to fault the series. In terms of it's heart, it is pure gold, and I think it's a perfect set up for Alan to gain the long overdue MBE that he THOROUGHLY deserves.
