The Young Offenders is a TV show with so much heart it might burst
Absolute Corkers
Conor MacSweeney is one of the most delightfully earnest characters in television. He's a fifteen year-old bike thief from Cork, and the first time you see him he's prying lead off a roof with his best mate Jock O'Keefe.

They're platonic partners in so much more than crime, and in the first episode of The Young Offenders Conor launches into a big speech about how much Jock means to him. I have never been so jealous of a fictional friendship, and demand the universe furnishes me with a crime pal. We'll only steal lead and bikes from bad people, promise.
