The End of the F***ing World
Some love stories begin at the end.
Created by Jonathan Entwistle
On Channel 4, Channel 4 (Online)
A darkly comedic coming-of-age road trip built on the intimate connection between two damaged teenagers, balancing offbeat humour with genuine melancholy and moral ambiguity.
James is 17 and is pretty sure he is a psychopath. Alyssa, also 17, is the cool and moody new girl at school. The pair make a connection and she persuades him to embark on a darkly comedic road trip in search of her real father.
