Funboys - Season 2

The gang belatedly get involved in the Great Famine, the one thing they didn't need to get involved in. Callum's new job at the Ballymac Folk Museum sends him down a spiral of method acting as a starving peasant. And he's helped along in this grovelling subservience by his new boss, tyrannical land steward Phillip. The sudden news, to Jordan, that a million people died during the potato famine causes him to finally develop empathy, and it turns out to be a real pain.

Strange things are afoot in Ballymacnoose: animals in small clothing, paranormal sightings of leprechauns, and most bizarrely of all, Callum gets his first ever match on a dating app. The one prickle on the pickle is that Gwen, Callum's dream girl, is also in an open relationship with the 50-year-old Grainne, a woman who disembowels chickens for a living.

Meanwhile, Gemma becomes obsessed with dressing farm animals in tiny clothing and causes Sammy to spin out in paranoia thinking that his farm has become infested with leprechauns. So Lorcan has no other choice but to introduce Gemma to the dark secrets of the Ballymacnoose Paranormal Society, also run by his da and Frank.

Life in Ballymacnoose becomes very complicated when Callum accidentally walks in on Gemma and Lorcan trying out a new form of lovemaking. The sight triggers a long-buried childhood trauma in Callum and raises uncomfortable questions about the town's deeply repressed relationship with sex. Can Ballymacnoose open its heart to true love?

Meanwhile, Jordan has officially begun dating his much older lover, 50-year-old Grainne. But as their relationship deepens, Jordan is confronted with another harsh reality of adulthood: he's going bald. Faced with the slow retreat of his hairline and the love of a good woman, Jordan must decide whether to cling to denial or embrace manhood in all its forms - love, responsibility and mushroom carbonaras.

As Callum begins slowly unravelling under the strain of Jordan's relentless night terrors about baldness, he stumbles upon a flyer for Ballymacbot Wars - a local robot combat tournament offering a generous cash prize and potential ticket out of Jordan's bedroom.

Meanwhile, Jordan is uncharacteristically uninterested in the whole affair. He's become a bald hermit, terrified to leave the house and expose his creamy scalp to the outside world. That is, until, like a dagger in the night, a hooded burst of inspiration sends him back out into the world… and the robot wars.
