Synopsis
Acclaimed, original and hilarious primetime comedy-drama series

 

BAFTA award-winning, character-driven comedy-drama. An original commission by Channel 4 in the UK and most recently by Showtime in the USA and 1+1 in the Ukraine. Shameless is written and created by Paul Abbott (Clocking Off; Touching Evil; Linda Green; State Of Play). The series, now in its 10th season with 136 scripts available, follows the rollercoaster lives and loves of a family as they experience life on the edge. 

Mix the world of sexual adventures, triumphs and love with a fair bit of crime on a run-down housing estate, where wheel-less cars are the norm and the moving ones are stolen; with an unemployed dad, who is drunk most of the time and has more kids every year; with some teenage troubles and the experience of first love. 

It’s a big, rather unconventional family.
