Queer as Folk
- Drama
Stuart Jones has got it all. He's rich, drop-dead gorgeous and always the centre of attention. He can be forgiven the arrogance because he's pretty close to perfection. His best mate Vince Tyler is funny, adorable and definitely a babe but, unlike his friend, has zero confidence in himself. Since time began, Vince has carried a torch for Stuart but his love remains firmly unrequited. They're both 29, hitting Canal Street every night, stalwarts of the scene but just starting to wonder where else their lives may be going. Then along comes Nathan Maloney. Young, wild and coming out with a vengeance, he crowbars his way into their world and once he arrives, nothing is ever the same again.
Queer as Folk is a British drama series that premiered in 1999, following Stuart Jones, Vince Tyler, and young Nathan Maloney as they navigate life, friendship, and romance on Manchester's gay scene. The series ran for two seasons before ending, becoming a landmark show in LGBTQ+ television.
