Heartstopper

In a bit of a departure from Bond, Sam and David discuss the joyful Netflix smash hit Heartstopper, a milestone in queer culture, and why EVERYONE needs to watch it.

Available as video or podcast.

Although Bond comes up a few times in the discussion, it mostly draws on many of the ideas we have explored in relation to Bond, especially in terms of representation. We discuss why it resonated with us so much, why we wish it had been around when we were growing up, the criticism it has (unfairly) received from a minority of gay men, the thoughts of a bisexual viewer and, ultimately, why it will have a life-changing impact on so many.
