Lucy Lewis is a terrible public speaker. Like, really terrible.
And she's about to have the worst week ever.
Lucy Lewis Can't Lose is a deeply uncool teen web comedy starring Thomasin McKenzie, Miranda Harcourt, Celia Macdonald, Catherine Pot, Allan Henry and Rahiri Wharerau and was made with the help of NZ on Air.

LLCL is made by the good people at Redletter TV (for THREEnow & Sticky TV in NZ) with the help of NZ on Air. Redletter TV's a New Zealand comedy web series company: fans of Flight of the Conchords, Lorde, The Candle Wasters and Jamie's World. Basically, if it's funny, awkward and kiwi - we like it.
We also super-love Nothing Much To Do, My So Called Life, Heathers, Easy A, Edge of Seventeen, The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, The Breakfast Club, Mean Girls, Lizzie McGuire, Clueless, Never Been Kissed, Girl Meets World, Daria, High School Musical, Get Over It, Squaresville and 10 Things I Hate About You. Did we miss any good ones?
The show was filmed in Wellington, New Zealand ( Wellington High did an excellent job pretending to be Hills High) and fun fact, Lucy Lewis (Thomasin McKenzie) is the real life daughter of our evil Principal (Miranda Harcourt).
Lucy Lewis is disabled ( she walks with a crutch), and no one will let her forget it. Especially her wheelchair user nemesis who thinks she's "not disabled enough". Lucy can't win! When she discovers evil goings on in her school, Lucy must face her fear of public speaking and stand up for her fellow students. Even though it's both literally and figuratively tricky.
The series recently won "The Award of Excellence for Disability Issues" at The Indie Fest Film Awards.
Don't forget to watch all the way to the end for bloopers and outtakes... speaking of ends, why are you still reading this, watch the series?!
