Amy is victimised at school as a result of Ted's faux pas.

The ups and downs of family life and being a transgender teenager. Amy is victimised at school as a result of Ted's faux pas.

How will Amy find her new school, will Gary and Charlotte stay together and will Grandad ever find love? Second series of the drama about a transgender teenager by Mark Davies Markham.

A very ordinary family has come to terms with the less ordinary experience of Amy, who was born as Ben. Amy is nervous about starting senior school, and even more moody as teenage life and the puberty delaying hormone blockers kick in.
