Kirkmoore is a new BBC Three comedy set in a college for disabled students
Kirkmoore actor Keron Day and writer Andrew Bogle talk about rude humour, disabled representation and the comedy in adolescence., a BBC Three comedy single set in a fictional college for disabled students, he was in hysterics. He was also excited. Really excited.
Featuring an all-disabled cast, the comedy focuses on David, serial dater Chloe , and sexually frustrated Jack . “All of the characters have a bit of me in them,” he says. “But once the ideas came, they began to take on their own character.”Kirkmoore’s characters take every chance possible to ridicule one another, meaning the humour is sweary, rude and unapologetically vulgar. For example, just minutes into the comedy, two of the school staff march down a corridor to deal with an incident: a student is watching porn on the school computer.
The actor adds that the characters in Kirkmoore are all engaging in everyday, teenage experiences. “I've never seen disabled people do on screen before.” “I think the reason why the project went so well is because we have a disabled director, writer, cast,” the actor adds. “It’s all authentic.”Keron says he was struck by how many people with disabilities were on set
