Coming to our screens courtesy of Clerkenwell Film, which also created The End of the F***king World, it tells the extraordinary story of isolated teenager Danny who, following the death of his mother when he was a baby, has been kept inside by his father and sheltered from a world filled with monsters.

However, when Danny turns 18 he begins to realise that his father’s monster-filled version of the world doesn’t actually exist, and starts to question his sheltered existence.

Like its predecessor The End of the F***king World, Somewhere Boy boasts an impressive soundtrack, with eerie music mirroring the action of the series.
