Screened as part of the BBC's Gay Britannia season, Mark Gatiss's witty and upbeat though never romanticised Queers. is a series of eight pub-set, decades-spanning monologues, starring and written by an array of well-corralled British talent.
---
"Curated and directed by Mark Gatiss, Queers sees eight new and established writers respond to the 50th anniversary of The Sexual Offences Act which partially decriminalised homosexual acts between men. Taking in 1957's Wolfenden Report, the HIV crisis and the 1967 Sexual Offence Act itself, the monologues will explore some of the most poignant, funny, tragic and riotous moments of British gay history and the very personal rites-of-passage of British gay men through the last one hundred years."
