Coming of Age clues about series 3
We know you love Coming of Age because you told us loud and clear that you wanted a third series (thank you to all the lovely people who took the time to tell us on .)
The creator and writer Tim Dawson is currently very busy working on the new series and he's so excited about it he wanted to let you know how it's going. I know lots of you are keen for clues about what DK and the gang will be up to so read on....Tim Dawson writes:
I think I should begin by thanking everyone who watched Series 2 for their wonderfully warm reaction to the show. I'm delighted it was so popular. Apparently Joe Tracini can't leave his house now without receiving shouts of 'Balamory' from excitable teenagers, excitable adults and disturbed toddlers.
It's still a few months until pre-production begins - that's when the producer, director, actors and production team come on board to start making the series proper. But I've been writing for about three months now, and I'm deep into the new series. So what can I tell you? Despite the rumours on Facebook, all the gang will be coming back. (Hooray!) But there's more...because this year they're going to be joined by duh duh duuuuh...
...a new character!
Now I can't tell you her name, mainly because I keep changing it (any suggestions please put them below) but she's seventeen, cute and has a big secret. Plus she hasn't been cast yet, so any aspiring actors out there get stretching those thespian muscles boys! Oops, I let out her secret - or did I? No I wouldn't do that - or would I? I should stop this joke now... or should I?
As well as the arrival of X, there's a lot in store for our heroes at Wooton College. Jas tries to move on from Ollie, DK acquires a stalker and for the first time Matt and Chloe face a problem which threatens their entire future together - the giraffe of fire!! There's jealousy, heartbreak and treachery as well as our usual raucous mix of comedy sex, outrageous visuals, special guest stars, raps, knob jokes and witty one liners all building to a thrilling climax.And what will that thrilling climax be? Obviously I can't say. But what I can say is this will be the best series of Coming of Age yet. I can't wait to make it. And I can't wait for you to see it.
Balamory!
Tim Dawson is the creator and writer of Coming of Age.
The third series of Coming of Age will be on ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Three in 2011.

Between two episodes Matt just randomly goes from being a normal teenager to a dribbling imbecile. It's not big or clever. It's just dull and shows incredibly poor characterisation. When you write a character, stick to the personality you give them in the first place. Also make the programme about a little bit more than sex. I know that may be a stretch for you but give it a go. Despite what you may think, teenagers don't all shag like the world's ending the following day. And after two series, a constant stream sex gags is just boring.

I'm hoping that Anabel and Tony are comfortable with it as I'd like to see Matt and Chloe explore it in one episode without poking too much fun at it.
