ITVX announces a new six-part comedy called G'wed, following a group of teens in Liverpool.

ITVX has announced a new six-part comedy called G'wed following a group of teenagers in Liverpool.

The show - from writer Danny Kenny - is described as "an uplifting, heart-warming and hilarious portrayal of teenagers today and how they view the world".

A description reads: "It delves into the working class culture of 'surviving with a sense of humour'. The distinctive voice of Liverpool and the lived experience of the kids from the city will be at the heart of this comedy, tackling big issues like grief, sex, diversity and class differences with a wicked sense of humour."

ITV comedy head Nana Hughes said: "G'wed sees an extremely exciting group of new talent hit our screens, most of whom will be seen for the first time. Danny captures youthful working class banter perfectly."

G'wed will be filmed this summer and premiere on ITVX in 2024.
