Changing Ends

Created by Alan Carr and Scottish screenwriter Simon Carlyle, this BAFTA-nominated comedy-drama is enjoyably camp, smart and often audacious. Filled with self-deprecating humour, British newcomer Oliver Savell is fantastic as young Alan, supported by the UK’s Shaun Dooley, Nancy Sullivan and Alan Carr himself, who drops in to narrate scenes from his past. Co-produced by London-based Baby Cow Productions and ITV.
