The Young Offenders recap: Loveable Leeside rogues bask in pre-Covid normality

Episode one revolved around a caper conceived by Billy Murphy.

As other shows struggle with lockdowns and other Covid restrictions, the loveable Leeside rogues are able to fill the scheduling gap with the six episodes of season three.

In hindsight, it was a genius decision. Summer 2019, the world is basking in relative normality, blissfully unaware of what's brewing in Wuhan.

Somebody suggests that, instead of the usual stint of filming one run of episodes, The Young Offenders should actually make two seasons during the summer in Cork.
