As part of a University assignment I'm doing I need to find some token gay characters to discuss.
Surprisingly it's easy to find good portrayals of LGBT characters but I'm struggling to find any stereotypical ones. They need to be from a British television drama series (not comedy). Any suggestions? |

Can you pick Reality TV Shows? If not then I'll try and think of some.
Come to think of it wasn't there a Lesbian character in Hex that was pretty stereotypical?

I settled on a character from Casualty lol since I watch that and knew a bit about him.
Thanks for your help though, but this basically proves the point I'm trying to make that there's very little representation for anyone who isn't white or straight in actual dramas. Gay characters seem to appear in comedies or soaps. |
