Well guess what! The stars of Snow Boys are back in this one-off exclusive, Snow Girl: A Snow Boys Story.
Meet Quinn, the trans teens who has just been kicked out of her home. She has nowhere to go and it’s freezing out. But then she spots a soup kitchen offering Christmas dinners, no questions asked. The food looks good – and she’s starving!

And if you’ve read Snow Boys, you know the one thing they’ll want to do is help. But will she let them?
