Ted and Noel
For over 50 years, iconic activist Ted Brown has fought for queer and black identities. But after losing his partner, Noel, under heart-breaking circumstances, a devastated Ted questions the impact of his activism and struggles to mount a new campaign. Can Ted find the strength for one last fight for LGBTQ+ rights?
Longing
On the night before her flight home, a Malaysian woman with a secret finds herself on an impromptu date with another woman.
Ticker
Howard drives his partner Joseph to hospital to undergo a high-risk operation, and the intimacy of the car, alongside a long forgotten mix tape, sees the masculinity of their forty year relationship start to yield.
Requiem
Requiem is set in 1605, against the backdrop of the witch trials. It's a coming of age story, following Evelyn as she engages in a game of cat and mouse against her father, Minister Gilbert, in order to be with Mary, the woman she loves.
F**ked
What exactly are the rules in an open relationship? With no rulebook, it’s down to the couple to draw their lines… So when Dani tells Jess she might be interested in sleeping with guys again, it doesn’t go down too well. F**KED raises the question many of us secretly ask ourselves - have I really explored and enjoyed my own sexuality? There’s something about hitting 30 that makes you question whether you’re really being true to yourself.

Here, the many forms of love and relationships are explored beautifully and with a poignancy that bites at times. A grieving LGBTQ+ activist tries to find the strength for one last campaign; the thrill of a surprise attraction; two long-term lovers facing an uncertain future; a forbidden relationship set in the time of the witch trials; and an open relationship with no rulebook causes two women to question whether each has fully explored her sexuality. This programme explores the many forms that love and relationships can take.
