Queer As Folk (UK TV Series)
''Queer as Folk'' is a 1999 British television series that chronicles the lives of three gay men living in Manchester's gay village around Canal Street. Initially running for eight episodes, a two-part follow up was shown in 2000. It was written by Russell T Davies and produced by Red Production Company for Channel 4. Background The title of the programme comes from a historic English saying, "there's nowt so queer as folk", meaning "there's nothing as strange as people"; which is a word play on the modern-day English sense of "queer", as homosexual. The script had originally started life with the title ''Queer as Fuck'' but ''Queer as Folk'' was considered more suitable. Characters and plot The main characters are Stuart Allen Jones (Aidan Gillen), who is highly sexually active, and successfully so. His long-time friend Vince Tyler (Craig Kelly), who has a crush on Stuart, has less luck with men. 15-year-old Nathan Maloney (Charlie Hunnam) is new to the gay scene but is ...

Banana (TV Series)
''Banana'' is a 2015 British television series created by Russell T Davies and aired on E4. The sister series to Channel 4's '' Cucumber'' and the 4oD documentary series ''Tofu'', ''Banana'' is a series focusing on LGBT youth in Manchester, around the narrative of ''Cucumber''. Unlike ''Cucumber'', which is a self-contained serial following the story of one gay man, ''Banana'' is an anthology series focusing on the wider LGBT spectrum. The series was nominated for the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding TV Movie or Limited Series. ''Banana'' develops some of the storylines of characters featured in ''Cucumber'' as well as introducing many new characters. ''Banana'' is primarily a self-contained series, occasional overlapping with the ''Cucumber'' narrative. ''Cucumber'', ''Banana'', and ''Tofu'' are all named after the same scale of erection hardness, with ''Banana'' symbolising the middle of the scale from the flaccid ''Tofu'' to the fully erect ''Cucumber''.

Cucumber (British TV Series)
''Cucumber'' is a 2015 British television series created by Russell T Davies and aired on Channel 4. Exploring 21st-century gay life, the series focuses on middle-aged Henry Best (Vincent Franklin). Following a disastrous date night with his boyfriend of nine years, Lance Sullivan (Cyril Nri), Henry's old life shatters. He embarks on a new life with unfamiliar rules. In development since 2006, ''Cucumber'' was announced along with E4's companion series ''Banana'', and 4oD's web series ''Tofu'' in November 2013. The titles of all three shows come from a scientific study into the male erection, which divided the erection into a hardness scale consisting of ''tofu'', ''peeled banana'', ''banana'', and ''cucumber''. Upon reading the study, Davies remarked that "right there and then, I knew I had my drama". ''Cucumber'' ran for one series. Davies confirmed that ''Cucumber'' was a one and done story and would not return for a second series. The show was nominated for the GLAAD Medi ...

2010s LGBT-related Drama Television Series
1 (one, unit, unity) is a number representing a single or the only entity. 1 is also a numerical digit and represents a single unit of counting or measurement. For example, a line segment of ''unit length'' is a line segment of length 1. In conventions of sign where zero is considered neither positive nor negative, 1 is the first and smallest positive integer. It is also sometimes considered the first of the infinite sequence of natural numbers, followed by 2, although by other definitions 1 is the second natural number, following 0. The fundamental mathematical property of 1 is to be a multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. Most if not all properties of 1 can be deduced from this. In advanced mathematics, a multiplicative identity is often denoted 1, even if it is not a number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number; this was not universally accepted until the mid-20th century. Additionally, 1 is the s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
