Youngers – written by Levi David Addai – stars Calvin Demba, Ade Oyefeso and Shavani Seth as a group of friends negotiating their way through teenage life and London's music scene. Popular YouTube stars Mandem on the Wall will also return for the second series, which will shoot in South London from November.
"Youngers is such a fresh, vivid and original take on teen life," said Sophie Gardiner – Commissioning Editor for Channel 4 Drama. "I'm thrilled that it connected with the E4 audience in the way it did – with over half of viewers aged between 10 and 24 years old. I'm delighted that Jay, Yemi and Davina will be back for a second series."
Executive Producer Luke Alkin added: "The critical reaction to Youngers has been fantastic. Series 1 was loved by its young audience so we're absolutely delighted to be bringing it back again."
