Spud 2: The Madness Continues

The year is 1991, and Spud Milton's (Troye Sivan) long walk to manhood is still creeping along at an unnervingly slow pace. Approaching the ripe old age of fifteen and still with no signs of the much-anticipated ball-drop, Spud is coming to terms with the fact that he may well be a freak of nature. With a mother (Julie Summers) hell-bent on emigrating, a father (Aaron McIlroy) making a killing out of selling homemade moonshine and a demented grandmother called Wombat (Christine le Brocq), the new year seems to offer little except extreme embarrassment and more mortifying Milton madness. He is soon beset with women trouble, coerced into misguided late-night adventures and finds his dreams of a famous career on the stage in tatters after landing the part of the Dove of Peace in a disastrous house play production of Noah's Ark. Aided by his English teacher "the Guv" (John Cleese), Spud takes up the fight against his housemaster Sparerib (Jason Cope) who is determined to get the Crazy 8 expelled from school.
