A truly touching and funny comedy/drama, that was beautifully presented with superb actors delivering excellent performances. I laughed and cried in equal measure. It highlights the difficulties of being a teenager dealing with puberty, and that horrible transition from easy, carefree childhood to adulthood. Only in this case there's the added 'bonus' of facing a potentially life threatening illness, together with grieving the loss of a parent. On the surface, that may make it sound drab and depressing, however, it's anything but! It's a tale of love, family, friendship and a good deal of humour in the face of adversity. An overall well crafted mini series that should not be missed!
