Ignorance is bliss.
Truly, it must be. I spoke
with someone very
recently who wasnt
aware that marriage
hadnt been an option for
all people in America
until but a few weeks ago. I was surprised, but
maybe I really shouldnt have been.
Dont get me wrong, you know I dont care
about the constant coverage of the marriage
aspect of it I care about the being equal part
of equality. But thats not the point apart from
being bleedingly obvious. The point was that, in
an age where weve never had more information
literally at our fingertips, Im surprised people
can still live in a world of their own making.
Perhaps thats the age of the selfie for you,
perhaps its just a much better place to live. Or
perhaps its still a worry, because it often results
in knee-jerk online reactions to things people
dont really understand or know enough about.
And yes, you could say, What are you doing
about it? We could pump out information and
remind people of world facts 24/7 and people
still wouldnt see things, and often the bigger
picture. Because ignorance IS bliss, and its
easier to have an opinion and pass judgement
on a topic you havent read than to take precious
time out of busy lives to fully understand.
We need to look up from our smartphones,
our tablets, our mindless social media and
be reminded of the real world once in a while.
Because its a frightening thought to be reminded
that what is given can still be, and in many
places around the world has been, taken away.

Playing Sailor
is amazing!
Everything thats
horrible in the
world is wrapped
up in this volatile
man. Actors love
to play intense, full

use to identify
myself. Being gay/
straight/bisexual
or anything, to me
is just like being
blonde, or having
a favourite flavour
of crisps. Its just a
part of who I am; a
man, who happens
to be gay, is an
actor, with brown
hair, and who has
a fondness for salt
and vinegar crisps.
----------
On expected
nudity on
stage...
Everything is
on show and
everything is being
scrutinised. That
was something
I had to become
comfortable with
quickly, so that I
didnt worry about
it. I look forward
to that scene now
because, ultimately,
its not me the
audience see, its
Sailor.
----------
On gay
marriage...
It doesnt matter
if its a man or
woman, or two
men, or two
women standing
up declaring their
love; weddings
should be fun.
And as everyone
knows, we gays
know how to throw
a party. So, now we
are married. Its a
tremendous feeling
and achievement to
be able to say that.

I have to admit,
I was being a
little mischievous
when I asked the former Liberal
Democrat health minister
Norman Lamb if there should
be gay or lesbian characters
in Peppa Pig. Hed been telling
PinkNews about the need for more
LGBT characters in childrens
programming and I wanted to test
how far hed go.
I also knew that itd make his
PinkNews Lib Dem leadership
interview more newsworthy
even though Norman lost out in the
leadership race to Tim Farron.
As a true liberal, Norman of
course said that there should
be no limits on where LGBT
issues are discussed and that it
was important for LGBT people
to be seen across all television
programming.
Cue predictable outrage from
the Daily Mail, which immediately
interpreted the PinkNews story as
meaning that Norman thought that
Peppa herself should be a lesbian,
and I was duly asked if Id go in
front of the cameras to defend the
concept on the BBC.

I
ts hard to believe, isnt it? That
people are still reacting negatively
to two blokes kissing on screen?
When Lord Michael Cashman
locked lips with Gary Hailes as Colin
and Barry in EastEnders in 1986,
it led to lurid national headlines,
hate mail and even questions being
asked in Parliament. Things arent
quite that bad in 2015, but when
Jonny Labeys Paul Coker shared
a kiss with Ben Mitchell, played
by Harry Reid, in June, it sent
bigoted trolls into meltdown with
homophobic comments springing up
all over social media.
No matter what the storyline is,
therell be a backlash, Jonny tells
us quite matter-of-factly, as we
start our interview. Were pulling
no punches and going in with the
heavy stuff. It was all very positive,
I thought, but it wasnt until I got
curious and started nosing around
that I found the negative ones. But it
doesnt matter if its a rape storyline
or a murder; theres always people
that are affected by them. It doesnt
matter if its gay or not, theres
people that dont agree or arent
comfortable watching.
Its a diplomatic approach to
take, but maybe Jonnys cavalier
attitude towards it all is thanks to the

thing to dislike.
As we begin to end our chat,
talk turns to the future for both
Jonny and his character. With an
exciting future ahead for Paul, his
relationship with Ben will move
through some difficult challenges
as they face off against their
own inner demons in true soap
fashion, of course. But Jonnys
hopeful that, regardless of the
struggles, the pair are able to
make a change to a viewers life;
for good. From fights, struggles
and the inevitable kisses, it seems
nothing is quite off bounds for this
Jersey boy turned soap star. When
we ask him if theres any limits to
stop him from reaching his goals,
that infectious smile spreads
across his face again, he leans
forwards and tells us: Im willing
to do whatever.

claustrophobic.
Whats it like
working in them
each day? On our
first day, wandering
through the cell
area was quite
spooky what with
the size of the cells
and the way it was
dressed. It was
quite depressing!
When we do long
days of shooting,
we walk out of there
going, My God, I
feel like Ive been in
prison all day. Its a
very arduous show
and no punches are
pulled; it just goes
full throttle.
Are you aware
of Wentworths
gay appeal? I am,
particularly through
Franky. When the
show started she
had a strong gay
following, which
was wonderful.
I think Nicole
playing a strong,
complex lesbian
is a fantastic
part. And Maxine,
the transgender
character, adds
an interesting
component to the
show and another
layer to it.
Have you been to
a Pride event yet?
No, but I think we
should have our
own Wentworth
float! If what you do
is having an effect
and youve got a
fan base who wants
to see you, then
bring it on!n

Boomer is one
of just a few
characters that
wasnt in the
original Prisoner
Cell Block H. How
did you approach
playing her? When
you audition there
are usually a few
paragraphs to give
you an idea of who
this person might
be. But mine was
like two lines only;
I dont think they
knew what Boomer
was, which meant
I got to go to town
and make her
whatever I wanted.
Prisoner had
a huge fan
base. Howve
they reacted to
Wentworth? It
seems to have been
a fairly seamless
transition. We treat
certain themes
with respect by
modernising them,
and focusing more
on the psychology
of the prisoners and
their relationships.
Weve been allowed
to delve into that
more than they
did in the 1970s. I
loved the old one
because it was a
huge show and still
is. I remember the
steam press, but
Boomer doesnt
have a good
relationship with it!
The stream press
is almost like a
character of its own!
While some
have compared
Wentworth to
Orange Is the New
Black, we think its
more like the male
prison drama Oz
Yeah, someone
else said that to me
recently. I watched
an episode of Oz
and had a panic
attack because it
was so violent and
I could never watch
it again. And now
here I am bashing
people and doing all
sorts of things.
Boomer isnt,
how can we put
this nicely, the
most attractive of
women, is she?
Its a blessing not
spending too much
time in hair and
make-up and, for
our wardrobe, I
know exactly how
Im going to look
every single day.
Although it doesnt
take long to do it, it
does require a lot
of adding of hair,
blotching of skin
and browning of
teeth that crushes
my spirit every day!
But it helps to throw
me right in and
means I can focus
more on what Im
doing rather than
how Im looking.
Then Ill go to an
awards ceremony
or something and
I moan because it
takes an hour and a
half to get ready and
Im so not into doing
that anymore! Id
rather wear trackies.
Comedian Rosie
ODonnell is
a huge fan of
Wentworth and
tweeted that
she wants a part
in it. I tweeted
our executive
producer that and
he favourited it, but
thats been it. Im
not going to let it
go though, I think
itd be awesome.
She brings such
amazing gravitas,
but I want her for
myself as a relative
or something. Im
not sure how well
shed do with the
Australian accent
though.
What would you
like to see coming
up for Boomer?
Im really open
to anything that
stretches me as an
actress. Shes a lot
more vulnerable
in series three so
you see her, not
just as muscle, but
also as someone
who struggles
when relationships
change.
Any plans to come
to the UK? I came
over for a press trip
for the first season
and were talking
about doing it again.
Plus its my ultimate
dream to work in the
UK as Im obsessed
with British TV. If I
could be in anything
Id be in Game of
Thrones or Scott &
Bailey. Im obsessed
with that.n

Maxine Conway
Socratis Otto
As a man playing a transgender
character, do you spend more
time in hair and make-up than
the female cast members? Yes!
The girls get dressed down and I
get dressed up. The only catch is I
have to be up by 4am and Im the
first in the chair, but Ive never been
treated so richly before!
What are your physical
preparations to play Maxine? I
have to book an appointment with a
beautician to be waxed before preproduction. I wax my arms, legs and
the top of my chest if theres scene
where Im in a shower or a robe.
Sometimes they start on the chest,
then I tell them to wax the whole
thing as it makes me feel a bit more
womanly. My nails grow fast, so Ive
grown them to play Maxine and all
the rest of the girls are very envious.
Whats been the response from
the LGBT community to Maxine?
Incredible, because weve kept
her so real in the sense that shes
not a stereotype. Theyve seen her
be one of the most compassionate,
loyal and strong characters on the
show. Its my favourite season so far,
its fucking brilliant and Ive been
As the prison
hunk, youre the
poster boy for
Wentworth Ill
take that! But to
be fair, theres not
many of us blokes.
Being surrounded
by so many women
is any mans
dream. Ive just
watched some of
series three and
Im in awe of those
actresses. When
youre working,
you go on set, do
your thing and you
want to get out.
After seeing the
final product and
seeing the women
work to such
high standards,
Im honoured to
share the screen
with them and
Im happy to play
second fiddle.
In the original
series, the cast
said that in the
green room, there
was a natural
divide between
those who played
the prisoners
and the wardens,
because
theyd become
institutionalised.
Theres no such
thing on the set of
Wentworth. Aaron
Jeffrey [who plays
Matthew Fletcher]
and I have a room
we call the man
cave, while the
girls have two
wouldnt talk
to us because
they were such
staunch followers
of Prisoner. After
the first episode
and my characters
wife dies, I heard
everyone gasp.
The journalists
came out of the
screening blown
away and told us
that we did an
exceptional job.
We realised we
might be on to a
good thing.
Were you aware
when it picked
up a strong gay
following? I
gathered it had
when women were
saying how hot
Franky was. But
I havent been
invited to dance on
a float at Pride yet.
Im hoping Ill get
an invite soon
Youre just about
to start filming
series four. If you
wrote the scripts,
what would you
do with Will? Id
like Will to have a
dark secret that
hes secretly gay,
which is why hes
so angry, and he
doesnt have the
balls to come out
of the closet. Oh,
and he has the
drag name the
Pacific Queen and
dresses in high
heels. n

What keeps you coming back to the
Fringe Festival? I find the Scottish
accent inherently arousing.
Doing a full month of shows at
the Fringe must be difficult. Do
you find your show changes and
evolves as the festival goes on? The
show is always changing. If I didnt
play around with my material the
show would lose its freshness. Thats
one of the great things about standup; every show is different.
Who are you most excited about
seeing this year? Many of my
favourite comics are on at the same
time as me, so Im definitely not
going to plug them. Lets just say Im
the only one worth seeing and leave
it at that.
And finally, whats your best one
liner? It involves two beekeepers
and an oversized scotch egg. Its a
hilarious joke. Probably the best joke
ever written by anyone. Youll just
have to come and see the show to
hear it. n

If youre
planning to take
crystal meth,
its important to
know that its a
very powerful
drug which is
likely to fog
your judgment,
advises Matthew
Hodson of GMFA
At the very least
its advisable to
set yourself some
boundaries before
you start your
bender and think
about what you
want to do, how
long you want to
stay awake for and
what your limits
are with regard
to safe sex. And
if youre using
crystal regularly,
take calcium and
multi-vitamin
supplements and
keep an eye on
your body weight.
If youre in a
situation where
youre taking
drugs and losing
sleep, theres
the potential for
damage to your
liver, kidneys and
heart. If youre on
HIV medication
and havent
planned for a
major session
then you might
end up skipping
a dose or more.
If it happens
68
often enough,
this can mean the
treatment is no
longer effectively
suppressing HIV
in your system.
Every week
clinics are filled
with crystal meth
users asking for
PEP because
theyve had risky
sex while high on
Tina. If youve had
sex which has put
you at risk of HIV
infection during a
party, go to a GU
or A&E service as
soon as possible,
it has to be within
72 hours, and
ask for PEP a
months course of
HIV medication
can prevent you
from becoming
HIV-positive
if youve been
exposed. n
gmfa.org.uk,
lambeth.gov.uk/
social-supportand-health/
public-health/thechemsex-study
arousal. So, when you add easyto-locate and cheap narcotics, less
inhibitions and a room full of horny
men, risky sex is almost a given.
Once youre under the influence,
it doesnt matter what the guys look
like, because youre so hungry
youll fuck anything or anyone,
continues Christian. You just feel
like you can do anything and no
ones going to judge you. I had safe
sex with a couple of them, but as the
party and the meph continued well
into the next day, I was too horny to
think about it anymore.
A recent chemsex study
commissioned by the London
Boroughs of Lambeth, Southwark
and Lewisham came following a
rise in HIV diagnosis in the gay
community. It revealed drugs
were often taken in combination
with sexual sessions occurring
over extended periods of time,
sometimes involving large numbers
of sexual partners.
It reads, the perceived rise
in the use of drugs during sex
has promoted concern about the
possibility of high-risk sexual
behaviour. While its not possible to
say that using drugs causes sexual
risk-taking behaviour, its possible
to say that there is an association
between the two: men who use a
range of drugs during sex are more
likely to report engaging in HIV
transmission risk behaviours than
men who dont.
Matthew Hodson, chief exec of gay
mens health charity GMFA, warns:
If youre going to chill out parties
and taking chems, you could be
putting yourself or your partners
at risk of HIV and STIs if youre not
having safer sex. The more people
you fuck, the greater the risk of
being exposed to them.
Theres a strong relationship
between group sex and
transmission of Hep C, for example,
which used to mainly be seen
in men living with HIV, but is
increasingly being seen in gay men
whore not HIV-positive.

it can be hard to juggle everything with a briefcase, so it might be time for a hands

light luggage requirements. The look isnt juvenile when worn in leather with advanced
hardware, but can be dressed down casual with zips and nylon. Now, one strap or two?

played rugby for keeping bulk and
energy for the game. You could eat
a lot, but then you were running 10k
and doing a weights session every
day. I was always on my feet and its
a contact sport, so there was a lot of
intensity to it.
Did you get any sporting injuries
that still affect you? Oh yeah,
Christ, I have aches and pains every
morning. I once ripped my abductor
away from the bone (part of the
inner-thigh) and part of my bone
with it. It was my last ever game so I
never really did my rehab properly.
Now I have to be careful with what I
do sometimes. But injuries were just
part of the job.
Have you continued to dance after
Strictly? Oh no, after I finished the
tour that was it. And most weeks
on the show it was like I was doing
a drunken stumble across the
dancefloor.
Did your body change during
training for the show? Yes, I lost
seven kilos in just five weeks. It
strips you completely, but then
youre training for seven to nine
hours a day and youre not really
eating as much. And youre shitting
yourself before each live show. That
keeps the weight off!
Did you enjoy the experience?
I loved it and Id do it again in a
heartbeat. I had a great time.
Would you do any more reality
TV? Yes, I would actually. Ive been
asked to do quite a few shows but
its a case of choosing the right one.
I dont know whether Id want to do
Im A Celebrity Get Me Out Of
Here! or if Celebrity Big Brother
would appeal. Theyd need some
serious thought first.
If you joined the next series
winter sports show The Jump,
wed get to see you in lycra
again I liked watching The Jump
so maybe Id consider that. Id be
more interested in the element of
learning something rather than
just sitting around all day on TV.

walls of sound that are like the Beach Boys
multiplied by four, singing in Westminster
Cathedral. You can hear it on tracks like
He Believes in Miracles and there are
moments on Silence and Air, with his mix
of vocal highs and sweeping melodrama,
that he sounds like Wild Beasts. Things
occasionally veer into folk-punk akin to The
Hidden Cameras, especially on his new
single Here To There. A chugging guitar
part gently pushes his angelic harmonies,
as we can hear barely a trace of cynicism
in his super cute lyrics about finding love
and sharing life with another person. So
when he wraps things up with Ill Be Gone
By Winter, hell have stolen your heart
before casually casting it aside by the end
of another season. musicglue.com/cduncan, @mrchrisduncan

WORDS MATT RISLEY
Ant-Man Cinema
If were going to be brutally honest, Ant-Mans
hoopla-tastic, headline-snafing production
process had ANTi-success written all over it.
So take away creative visionary Edgar Wright,
replace him with the director of, erm, Bring It
On, throw in a heap of last minute re-writes,
craft a script that screws with comic continuity
and riles the fanboys, and what do you get?
Yet another Marvel hit that dees the countless
creative obstacles thrown in its path.
Scott Lang a bewilderingly buff, even more
phwoarsome Paul Rudd is an ex-con cat
burglar who catches the eye of former secret
superhero Dr Hank Pym. When the technology
behind his shrink tech falls into the wrong
hands, Pym must mentor Lang into saving the
day via some snazzy size-distorting surreality,
a super-suit and a hefty dose of snark. Honey I
Shrunk The Avengers, basically.
Sure, there are issues with pacing and the ties
to the wider Marvel Cinematic Universe are as
shoehorned as a rhino trying on slippers, but its
an adventure salvaged by a perfectly pitched
cast, high stakes that feel refreshingly insular,
and an ingeniously crafted third act ght nale
set almost entirely within a little girls bedroom.
A giANT success.

Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain
Game of the Month
Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes certainly did the
trick when it came to wetting appetites for the next
full-length instalment of Hideo Kojimas magnum
opus. Unveiling a suitably next generation
dynamic, the games little more than a level in
terms of its length, but a lot more in terms of its
breadth main raison dtre was to showcase
the truly open world approach the series was
moving towards a transition thats well and truly
completed in The Phantom Pain. MGS games
themselves have always had something of a
hardcore avour to them, thanks to the incredibly
lengthy, story-rich cut scenes and complex intercharacter relationships. And while The Phantom
Pain promises more of the same, the genuine
ability to decide which of a myriad of ways to
tackle an objective really does freshen things up
and adds a layer of appeal previously missing.
Taking place nine years after the events of Ground
Zeroes, The Phantom Pain sees our grizzled hero
knee-deep in another nefarious plot but this time
things like the passage of time itself and even
the weather will come in to play, both in terms of
how the game behaves and how youll choose to
approach it. Needless to say, essential!

Corrective rape isnt talked about
because homosexuality isnt talked
about, which is why families often
have limited understanding of what
homosexuality is. Some parents, so
afraid of the stigma their child will
suffer if word gets out, decide to
carry out the abuse themselves.
Understandably, many people
think its safer to hide their true

pressure to marry.

It was very emotional for us, she

In Sri Lankan culture, men dont cry,
especially fathers.
Other parents react by seeking
cures. In rural areas, witch doctors
kattadiyas offer remedies for
homosexual urges, from herbal
teas to hanging magnets from
the patients testicles. Some
psychologists continue to treat
homosexuality as a mental illness.

If youre extra unlucky, theyll
drag you to events with them.
One of these a fortnight, you
could probably do; theres
usually free booze for most of the
evening and canaps are a great
way of finding out the latest
trends in undercooked salmon.
But night after night after night?
This is one hot trend thatll go off
the boil pretty quickly.
The solution If youve found
yourself with a fashion blogger
and theyre just too pretty to let
go, you need to position yourself
as the worst photographer ever.
Im talking fingers over the lens,
seeking out unflattering light,
the lot. If it doesnt put them off,
youre obviously meant to be a
timeless classic.
---------The Dating Blogger
Pray for the soul of the
dating blogger, should they have
one, for they can never find true
love and, if they do, must find a
way to ruin it completely so they
can carry on blogging. They may
be hot, they may be hilarious,
but their charm is on the meter
once theyve published, youll
be damned. They can move
conversation from dreary job
chat into gulp-worthy
flirtatiousness at breakneck
speed, usually because theyre
anxious to move things along so
they can get back to their lonely
hovel and write all about you.
Or, you know, shag you. If
theyre extra vain, and they
usually are, theyll slip you a
link to their blog as they leave.
Unless theyre saving you for the
book, of course.

Nightmares come to

a dream come true.
This ranks up there
as one of the best
moments ever. Ever
aficionados queue throughout
the night, as day turns to dusk
and then scream-filled dark, at a
number of themed horror houses
situated on massive soundstages
around the park. Many of the
regular rides remain open should
your nerves require something
of a break from the various scare
zones that you have to navigate
through on the streets to reach
your (final?) destination.
As with the houses, many of

In classic horror movie fashion,

of scares, and twice as many
scareactors than ever before.

against Friday the 13ths Jason
