YOU'LL WISH YOU WERE GAY: CHANNEL 4'S IT'S A S REVIEWED

Davi sisted an terview that gay characters should be played only by actors who are actually gay. One of the thgs that ma Davi’s Queer As Folk so watchable was Aidan Gillen’s mmerisg performance as the smirkg, predatory, cksure queen of the Mancunian gay scene Stuart Alan Jon.

But Gillen, who has a girliend and two children, almost certaly fails Davi’s gay thenticy tt. If you’re not gay will make you wish you were gay — or at least that you had been gay those rto, libido years before Aids stck. The answer, as Jill fears bee she’s done her rearch, is that there’s a sry new thg lled Grid (‘Gay Related Immune Deficiency’) on the horizon.

Even the gay sex scen — of which there are many — aren’t too awkward, largely bee they’re played more for lghs than for eroticism. Queer As Folk was revolutnary for s time, breakg taboos as followed the liv of three gay men livg Manchter the late '90s. The seri shocked viewers wh s graphic pictn of gay sex - particularly between Aidan's 30-year-old character and 15-year-old schoolboy Nathan.
