Meet Jamie, 16, and Laura, 18. They are two teenagers who - after one too many drinks, some deceptive party lighting and an available bedroom - find they have one very big complication on their hands. Laura (Scarlett Alice Johnson - Adulthood) is pregnant. Only problem is, she's meant to be heading off to university and Jamie (Sean Michael Verey - Skins) is way too young to be considering raising a kid.
Prior to this, the extent of his responsibilities was doing his homework and managing his pocket money. Pramface brings humour and heart to a tricky subject, as it follows these two unexpected parents-to-be as they try, and frequently fail, to negotiate family, sex and what happens once nine months is up...

Review by: jopukeko (Jo)
Dated: 23rd of February, 2013
I had never heard of Pramface until I it was offered for review. The blurb, two teenagers faced with the reality of an unplanned pregnancy as a result of a reckless one night stand, appealed to me so I was pleased when I got it. When I started watching the first episode I really wondered what I had got myself in for. The first half of the first episode was very dull. Reflecting on it now I think it was because they had to introduce the characters and show that they weren't just reckless teens.
I only continued watching it because I believe that to give a fair review I needed to give it a descent go. I am really pleased I did because before I knew it I was laughing so much I risked leaking. I watched the first DVD (4 episodes in one sitting) partly because of the humour but also because I wanted to see how the plot developed.
My favourite character is Jamie's best mate Mike, who did several things that reminded me of the American Pie movies. I totally agree with the M rating the censors gave the DVD set due to the language and sexual references. I am pleased to see that a second series has just finished airing in the U.K. I'm looking forward to watching these too.

His only guide on this journey is Al, an observer from his own time, who appears in the form of a hologram that only Sam can see and hear. And so ... more...
