The first season of The Young Offenders television series was a massive success. Co-produced by the BBC with RTÉ, it carried on the acclaim that was lavished on the 2016 eponymous film that debuted the two beloved characters Conor and Jock.
If you're a fan of the show and have thought while watching "I could blend into the background of that scene", here's your opportunity.

The Young Offenders season two began filming back in September, with rumours of love, Electric Picnic and a cameo with Cillian Murphy - what more could we ask for?
A release date has yet to be revealed but we're hoping we don't have long to wait.
