酷儿们

本·卫肖、拉塞尔·托维、艾伦·卡明等携手出演BBC Four开发重磅LGBT题材新剧《酷儿们》(Queers,，暂译)，该剧只有一季，共8集，每集都配有独白。

剧集将由《神探夏洛克》编剧马克·加蒂斯执导，并正在英国制作中。

由于该剧有BBC和老维克剧院共同参与。

在电视播放前 ，全8集每集15分钟的独白都将在7月话剧舞台率先表演。

独白将由加蒂斯在内的8位作者撰写，以展现过去100年中，英国历史里同志的生活和遭遇，展现历史。

本·卫肖会在《The Man on the Platform》一集中出演从一战战壕归来的士兵；小狼在《More Anger》一集出演上世纪80年代的同志演员；卡明出演反应同志婚姻的《Something Borrowed》一集。

[敦刻尔克]男主角菲昂·怀特海德等也将分别出演其它几集。

剧集将于今夏播出。

酷儿们，第一集：站台上的人，一闪流光的眼神，隐秘而伟大的相识；第二集：伟大的一天，我们甚至不需要那一点看似宽容的让步，因为这一点宽容即是冒犯；第三集：多点愤怒，如果只是面对天灾而非人祸，那么愤怒应该会少点；第四集：想念爱丽丝，爱丽丝！

你应该离开的……第五集：我想念战争，想念那场战争带来的某人；第六集：城市里最安全的地方，逃避一时，终需一战；第七集：完美绅士，快乐重要吗？

自由才重要；第八集：借来之物，如果爱一定要拘泥于形式或某种结果，那不如还你。

文学性和电影性一样，都是不可言说只可意会，文学性不仅能浮现在文本中，也能呈现在电影里，话剧里，甚至在其他艺术形式里，文学性是与生俱来的，有就是有，没有就是没有，它是优美的文本和思考无缝融合的结晶，无论从哪个角度看，都闪烁天生的矜贵。

中国的严肃文学都没有，所有畅销书肯定没有，死掉五十年作品还依然存世的文本不一定有，还活着的作家文本，却可能有，电影里，偶尔能看到，塔可夫斯基和基斯洛夫斯基，很明显，上承旧俄文学的灵魂，伍迪艾伦，和保罗奥斯特完全一路，却远远不及，欧容，菲利普加瑞尔，劳伦·冈泰，以及百分之九十的法国文艺片，全能看得到法国文学随性，自由，高级审美，和善于思辨的本质，英国最优秀的电影，则明显还是EM福斯特，伊夫林沃的魂牵梦萦。

阅读和观看时，缺乏文学性，就像一道大菜没放盐，也像美女毫无灵魂，难以下咽，俗不可耐；生活中没有文学性，则令人倍感贫瘠。

于是书本之外，看到一部英剧，倍感惊喜，《queers》，系列剧，八集，每集20分钟，只有一个主角，一个场景，主角在场景中对镜头讲述自己的故事，仅此而已，这种极简的表演和拍摄方式，自然极考验表演者和导演的功力，同时，它更挑观众，这是个连抖音超过30秒的视频都嫌长的时代，谁能静下来看20分钟的独角戏？

而且，都是喋喋不休。

这却是一部极具文学性的剧，当所有乱人心智耀人眼球的形式感被完全剔除，只有旁白，只用旁白，文本的魅力被放至无限。

最喜欢第一集，本韦肖主演，他是一个战争归来的士兵，讲述自己的经历，他讲述在欧洲遭遇的相聚和死亡，他说同僚会看着他，问你这样的人怎么辨认出彼此，他说自己的童年，在车站上看到一个老人被逮捕，那老人的眼睛迅速掠过他，就像“一闪流光”，是的，这样的人，就靠“一闪流光”的眼神彼此确认，后来他才知道，那老人是王尔德，他接着讲述，他在战场上遇到了歆慕的人，头发像玉米金黄，他们在午后的野湖泊中游泳，休憩时，他看到阳光照射在那金黄的头发上，湿漉漉的水滴低落，他想向他靠近，对方却突然惊醒，说，我们回去吧。

战争再次爆发，他们被火车运送到四面八方，此去山长水远，命悬一线，站台上，他远远看到那一把金黄的头发，在与旁人聊天，眼神在他身上一掠，装作没看见，他的心顿时凉了半截，直到火车再度启程，他听到窗边有人叫他名字，原来他跟着火车走，将他搭在窗台上的手握在掌中，轻轻一吻，叫了一声他的名字。

幕落。

令人落泪的文本，也是令人落泪的文学性，而其存在于一部电视剧中，更令人感动。

时常觉得世界的荒芜，那时内心的极度丰富与外在的不均衡，说到底，中国目前所提倡的文化，也是纯功能性的文化，无非是娱乐性消费，或承担了政治宣传功能，纯粹的提升心智或实现高级审美的文本作品，并不存在，更别提文学性这种注定更高寡的，网剧，抖音，网络小说改编，几乎占据了一切眼球制高点，无论国力提升到什么水准，注定从文化到经济，依然停留在初级阶段。

追求精神丰富和自由的人，注定会在这片土壤里活得艰难，其实，追求文学性，就像追求一个更高层次的世界，这个世界与物质无关，沉迷于精神造物的人，本质上都无法与真实而灰色的世界兼容，正如妙玉的判词：过洁世同嫌，其实，过洁的人，又何曾不嫌世。

意外精彩的BBC纯独白剧集没有背景音乐 没有场景画面 只有一个人坐在面前讲述每集都只有十几分钟但却都是十分深入内心的故事 代入感强到可以让我缓半天 因此也花了将近半个月的时间去细细品味每一个故事每位演员从神态到语调到肢体无不彰显细节台本用词也很考究 常常让人停下回味或是查词典从LGBT角度分析 剧中包含近代以来英国该群体外部生存环境改善的许多重要时间节点 在关注故事的同时也了解了人文历史 故事本身也都具有一定深度个人来说真的太爱了 很英国 很BBC最后为Fantopia字幕组打call 包含摘要式时间点相关背景介绍 以及地道双语字幕 剧末的滚动字幕也完全打动我

剧末滚动字幕（1）

剧末滚动字幕（2）片尾钢琴曲也百听不厌 必须五星～

第一集The man on the platform 婉约深邃的情感和第四集Missing Alice 怅然成空的遗憾，细腻得直击人心，只是这种情感的共鸣最终在第七集的时候衰竭，走向不可抑制的诘问：为什么即使在LGBTQ这个本应代表包容的议题里，女性的声音仍旧弱势？

我当然能认同她对男装和男性身份的渴望，但这显然混淆了Les的自我身份认知/Les的刻板印象……你知道什么是解决办法吗？

多来几个女同角色吧！

他美好的像一个梦，仿佛是凭空的由阳光送来，是众神的宠儿，赤足的美少年，手持金箭，即使是林中狩猎，也是那么轻灵不沾尘，与血腥无关，只是追逐花的灵魂。

看着Ben这个忧郁的士兵，视力受损，心灵受创，说不定还有PTSD，一瞬间恍惚疑惑他是否沉浸于幻想。

看他吞吞吐吐，欲言又止，疏离和沉迷转换，一时Captain一时Terrance，眼神一时滚烫一时冰凉，身不由己！

E1 剧本真是好。

继承夭折哥哥的名字，品尝禁果的描述也太贴切了。

E3 作为特殊群体，渴望被尊重与平等对待，但也愿意享有特别身份所能给予的归属感与"特权"。

Stereotype，或广义讲标签化是具有两面性的，它们粗鲁地去个体化，但也具有一定的真实性。

E5 谈到gay间的暗语It's supposed to protect u from lily law. It's not supposed to be on the wireless everyday, for the amusement of bored polones.E6有色人种在本国得不到成为自己的权利，被禁止进入上层阶级的地方，被鄙视挑拣，却要为国家上战场。

E8·Rights aren't like cake,me having some doesn't mean you get less. Me having the right to get married doesn't take anything away from anyone else.·You can't really blame children. Little pitchers. What gets poured in gets poured out.·You can't have a gay wedding without Oscar Wilde quote." All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does. That's his." 这段和E1的呼应太😭了。

·PDAs can still make me nervious.(Public Display of Affection公开示爱)"If there's a gay kid in here with his folks, frightened that he's a freak, don't you think that it might give him hope, seeing two guys wandering around, being themselves, getting their groceries, like everyone else? "是的，我们争取权利，努力发声，独立思考，很多时候不是因为能够在现阶段真正改变什么，而是让其他人和后辈更有信心罢了。

If happiness is a place, it's the biscuit aisle in Sainsbury's.

Queers 松散的结构之下，其实是编剧有意为 LGBTQ 群体与群体之外的其他人找到了一种新的联系。

将视角放到更高的地位，看似 8 集毫不相干的不同主角的碎碎念，实际讲述了在各个重大历史事件之中，LGBTQ 群体所扮演的角色，尤其是影响了世界格局的一战二战，他们所冀盼的和平，和普通人无异，他们的付出，也不少于你和我。

1st Episode月台上的男人时间点放在一战背影的第一集无论是选角还是故事编排，我个人都觉得是8集里质量最高的。

故事编排工整，用主人公 Perce 人生中的两次月台之上的所见所闻，一方面勾画出了历史上著名的王尔德事件，同时也完成对自己的救赎。

本喵贡献了超出以往的高水平表演，文弱书生的气质也着着实实适合代入这种看似柔弱、实际倔强的角色。

初始颇为碍眼的浓密的胡子 mustache 随着独白的深入，竟然也和角色浑然一体了。

用王尔德事件作为开篇绝不是偶然，因为事件不仅仅将 LGBT 群体由黑暗阴影之中第一次推向耀眼白光之下，更是人类性解放运动的开端。

“对于这种爱的名字，本世纪无人敢于提及。

然而它是一名年长男子对于一名年轻男子所产生的极其伟大的感情，就像大卫和乔纳森，就像柏拉图哲学理论的基础，就像你从米开朗琪罗和莎士比亚的作品中所发现的精神。

它是深刻的精神之爱，既纯洁又完美。

”虽然没有任何场景，但本喵极富感染力的音调、恰到好处的表情克制和所述故事的细腻，让整个独白画面感非常强，犹如情景重现，细枝末叶都看得清清楚楚，甚至不知不觉在脑海里对王尔德的脸（未出镜）都有了一个更为具象的脸谱想像。

其中所描述的关于如何辨识同类，放之于任何男女之间的一见钟情，更是有异曲同工之妙。

“It's always the eyes. That's how you know. A glance held just that a little bit too long, dragged off to the one side, like the trail of a very light in the dark.眼神是最能辩明身份的。

多停留一秒、旋即抽神而去的目光，就如黑暗中那白日焰火般明了，两人心照不宣。

”2nd Episode出柜的好日子A Great Day Out 讲述了英国 LGBT 史上突破性的一刻，1994 年英国国会同意将同性恋合法年龄下调到 18 岁双方同意的同性恋行为就不算犯法。

本集 17 岁主角 Andrew 的扮演者是诺兰毁誉参半的新片 Dunkirk 的男主角 Fionn Whitehead，依然是借由普通人的口吻来讲述最激烈的革命。

在独白中 Andrew 所说的那一句“仅仅被人忍受是不够的”刺穿了英国国会这一妥协的荒谬之处。

I don't want to be tolerated. 当然了，有进步总是好的。

3rd Episode袖手旁观的愤怒小狼的盛世美颜在第 3 集镇场，用一个演员自我读白来折射出 80 年代令人绝望的 AIDS 大爆发，AIDS 的爆发在当时被视作比癌症更为严重的洪水猛兽，但真正令人绝望的是政府对此的不作为。

其所扮演的演员 Phil 以扮演绝症患者为生，究竟在生命的最后一刻会怎么样的情绪，于个人可能更多的是会不会在痛苦中死去、死亡的过程会不会很快，又或者万一活了下来又会怎么样；但对于整个社会，可能更多的是对其不作为的愤怒。

4th Episode想念爱丽丝说到同性恋，同妻这个群体就不得不提及。

这是一个涉及到互相伤害、利益、世俗、情与欲的范畴。

无独有偶，BBC 最近也出了一个两集长度的《橘衫男子》，里面就有大量的关于同妻的描述。

你会觉得同妻所能获得的性生活很少，但实际并不然，真正将她们与快乐隔绝开来的是，是本来最能获得亲密的行为却在她们身上最大程度上烙下了伤痕，本来是除却巫山不是云的美好，却变成了冰冷身体的物理摩擦。

这种来自身边最亲密的人的打击，是最难痊愈的，有些人选择了忍气吞声，有些人选择了两败俱伤。

这一集所对应的则是 1954 年英国成为了一个专门委员会研究应该如何处理“同性恋犯罪与卖淫”，经过 62 次会议、听取 200 个以上团体和人人所作的证词、长达 3 年的激烈讨论和质证，委员会主席 John Wolfenden 在 1957 正式向英国政府提交报告称“同性恋不是一种疾病”以及“任何成年人之间、在相互允许的情况下、私下进行同性恋活动不应该被认为是犯罪”。

5th Episode战争缅怀者1967 年，英国英格兰及威尔士地区正式取消同性恋犯罪，规定年满 21 岁双方同意的同性恋行为不算犯罪。

同样是将同性恋去罪名化，你可以将这一集和第二集做个对比，相对于现代小孩对人权追求的强烈坚持，老一辈的人当时的态度看起来要消极得多。

6th Episode城市里最安全的一角这一集带着浓浓的二战情结，大背影是 1941 年德国纳粹发起的对英国首都伦敦实施战略轰炸，这一事件在《他们最好的》和动画电影《伦敦一家人》都有着非常明显的体现。

在更大的和平需求面前，LGBTQ 群体的参与感并不比寻常人要弱。

7th Episode完美绅士这是整个系列里的第二爱，讲述了一个无奈的蕾丝边儿骗炮的悲伤故事。

我们权游里的铁姐儿 Gemma Whelan 在这里继续是汉气十足的铁T，将那种欲求亲密而不得的无奈演绎得淋漓尽致。

若故事有一半属实，一根干蜡烛也能把男人可以做的事做完了，画面感太美我都不敢想了。

8th Episode借来之物这一集和第一集并列成为这个系列的最爱，因为我们亲爱的 Alan Cumming 说出了同性恋人那些细腻又温馨的细节，说到底，我们都是无可救药的浪漫主义者。

而这一切得以温馨回忆的细节，都得益一个世纪以来前人不断地争取和努力之下达成的同性婚姻合法化（2013年英国）。

第一次相遇时，他闻起来有棉花糖和香皂的味道，一种合适得迷人的味道。

So I told him.Not my words, something somebody said to me once."A certain liquidity of the eye." That's how HE knew.My eyes are bad, mind you.Too bad for shooting Prussians at any rate, so I was shunted onto hospital work."Cushy", says Sam."That's a charabanc holiday, Perce."You always wanted to see France, didn't you?" I remember my first day in resus - the resuscitation tent.That's where they take the dying or the nearly dying and the shocked ones.There's heated beds to put some life back into them, and transfusions.Our guns were going hell for leather.The sky was all lit up - powdery, green.Horrible green.Like the air was sick.Star shells, Verys, dumps going up.And then the ambulances come in and we have to ferry them in, the ones that can't walk.And they've got these labels on them that tell you what's wrong with them.Like left luggage.Have you ever carried a stretcher? Bloody horrible.You feel like your arms are going to pop out of their sockets.Some chaps can get very heavy.Those that can walk into the hospital ..are covered in mud and salt sweat.Caked in it.All stiff and cracked, like moving statues, like those poor fuckers in Pompeii what got covered in lava.I've seen photographs of them in the lending library.And then, in the resus tent, a thing you'd never expect.Silence.Not a moan or a groan.They're beyond all that, I suppose, most of them.Smoking, breathing, just about.Mind you, I've seen what a transfusion can do and it is a bloody miracle.Lads with one foot in the grave and their pulses all thready, they have the transfusion, they're up, they're joking, they're having a smoke in a couple of hours.I said to Captain Leslie, I said, "You wouldn't credit it, would you? "It's like It's like witchcraft." "Sounds about right", he says, "since we're in hell." But he says it with a smile and when he does that there's these creases in his cheeks like ripples in the sand."You're a credit to this unit, Percy", he says to me."You've all the tenderness of a woman." And he shakes my hand."It's Terrence," he says and I says, "What is?" He says, "Me."My name.Terence Lesley."Do call me Terence."I can't bear all this formal rot." But he's an officer and it don't seem right, so, "I'll stick to Captain Leslie," I say, "if it's all the same." He just smiles again and shrugs.And his eyelashes are long.Long and blonde.I can't see much of his hair cos it's under his cap, but then one day I'm bringing in a stretcher ..and he takes his hat off and, just like that, his hair tumbles out.Yellow as corn.And I must have stared because he grins at me and pushes his hair out of his eyes and says, "Come along, Perce, stir your stumps." But I don't move.And just for a bit Well, like I say, held just a just a moment too long.Douglas Fairbanks over there will give me a wink in a minute.There you go.HE SIGHS KNOWINGLY I've always been a skinny bugger, me.Thin as a whip, Mother says.Father was the same.Mother always had a bit more beef on her after she had Albert and me, and there was one before us.A boy.But he died.He was called Percy, an' all.Poison berries.Never think a thing like that can happen, but it does.I can remember Mother showing me the pictures in the medicine book, all shiny and glossy pictures like Jesus in the book at Sunday School.And little Percy had grabbed a handful of these berries and ..that was that.Box, I think, the berries.Black, like little bullets.Like liquorice sweeties.Maybe that's what little Percy thought they was.Anyway, they done for him and then, a year or so after that, along comes I and they call me Percy, too.A bit odd, some might say, a bit morbid, but Mother always said that she could see him in me.And she looks so funny when she says that to me ..and she looks so sad.But I don't think it's just because of little Percy because there was another time she looked at me the same way.It was freezing, I remember that.We was waiting for a train.Dad had some business in Reading, I forget what it was.We were to come with and make a day of it.I was 15, thereabouts.Albert was 12.I'd been dispatched in search of tea and buns.They all sat in the waiting room, steam coming off them like wet dogs.Anyway, I'm on my way to the refreshments and there's a commotion, so I think, "Oh, the train must be coming in," so I say to the girl behind the tea stall, pretty girl I remember with bows in her hair, I ask her to get a shift on.She says, "What's the hurry? The Reading train isn't in for another "quarter of an hour." So I think, "What's all the fuss about, then?" And then I see it ahead of me on the platform.Policemen, at least I think they're policemen, but then I look properly and they're not, they're from the jail.Dark uniforms, little hats with shiny brims.And between them, well, aa prisoner ..waiting to be taken away, I suppose.And it's not the first time I've seen as such.I used to see them a lot, poor bastards, shuffling along in their chains and the arrows on their clothes.And it's rough clobber, like to make you itch, worse than this.So, "Why are all these folk whispering and pointing?" I wonder.So I look at the chap in the chains and he's a big chap, sort of like a big bear of a fella.With a big slack, pouchy face.Fat-ish, except it's all sunk in now, and his hair, which was most likely black as your hat is now shot through with grey.And he looks wretched.As well he might.There's rain dripping off his hair and down the creases in his big face.And then I realise, it's not just rain, he's bloody crying.And then he looks at me.And there it was.In that moment ..a certain liquidity of the eye.And then he looks back down at his boots and it's as if the whole world has come tumbling down around him.I stand there.And I think, "He knows me."He knows me for what I am."He can see it in me." And I start to shake.And it's not from the cold, it's shame.And fear and ..terror.And someone starts laughing.And there's a little girl and she's wandered close to the prisoner.She's got a little wooden horse on a dirty bit of string.And then her mother goes up and drags the girl away from the man as if he were like to eat her up.And then I hear it, a name.Whispered behind fancy gloves and November hands what are stiff with cold."It's him, isn't it?" And suddenly Dad's beside me and he's gripping my arm and he says, "You all right, Perce?" And he's proper worried.And there's a sort of ringing noise in my ear and I feel for a moment like I might faint, but then this chap goes straight up to the prisoner on the platform and he He spits in his face.And Dad looked shocked.And just then, the train comes puffing into the station, steam everywhere.And I look back to the prisoner, but he's covered now in a great big cloud of steam.Dad picks up the tea and the buns and he gets us into the carriage.It smells of damp wool and musty, like church, and there's little beads of rain on the window, the open window.And Mum pulls down the leather strap and the sound sort of ..snaps me out of it."What was all that fuss about there, Clem?" And Dad sups at his tea and it hangs in little drops from the ends of his Kitchener 'tashe."You won't believe it," he says."Out there on the platform, waiting to be taken to prison" "Who?" pipes up Albert.And he looks at us and he shakes his head in wonder."Oscar Wilde!" he says.And then Mum looks at me.Tender, like I've never had the nerve.That's the thing, I suppose.A notion of getting in trouble or being a bother I could always imagine Mother's face if she found out I'd been up to things.And I couldn't bear it, I couldn't bear to disappoint, so I didn't, I didn't do anything about it.Not even a tuppeny wank with Sam or nothing.I kept my own counsel, as they say.Also, there was a girl who was sweet on me.Annie.And that sort of stopped people asking, I suppose.We courted for a long while, but she got fed up because I never asked her to marry me.I took on like Annie had broke my heart and then, what with one thing or another and then the war, it sort of, somehow, I got away with it.A lot of questions, of course.Especially when all us Tommies were billeted together for the first time."You married?" "No." "You got a girl?" "Well, I used to." And then one day, in Amiens, there was a sort of lull.Hot as hell it was.Not what you think.People think of all that mud and rain, but we was there the live long year and sometimes it was hot and parched.Fucking flies everywhere.Blue and green bellies on them.Fat.Great clouds of them because of the dead bodies.And Captain Leslie comes up to me and he slaps me on the shoulder and he says, "Come along, Perce, we're going hunting." And I say, "What?" He says, "Butterflies", because we're camped on this sort of downland.And there's marigolds and poppies all over, little splashes of colour.I can still taste the dust.Chalky in your mouth and your hair and ..on the Dunlop tyres like white paint, because Terrence had only gone and got us bicycles, the silly bugger.And it was only for a few hours but you could forget, you know, for a bit, everything that was going on.And we came to this sort of lake.It was a crater hole, I suppose, and the water was glass green and clear like a perfume bottle.And Terence, he starts hollering and rattling the bike down to the water and he pulls off all his clothes and in he goes.I follows, and then we go splashing about in our birthday suits.And he's brick red from the sunshine, but not where his shirt's been, so he's got this sort of red face and arms, and the rest of him is He's like a ghost.And after we've swum about, we just lie in the grass and fall asleep.You can hear the buzz of the flies, but they are way off and some of the ones that are closer are butterflies, so that's all right, and I just ..lie there and I watch Terence sleeping and ..his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.And his hair is golden.And the line of his jaw is just sort of ..perfect.Like a draughtsman's drawn it.Like I'd drawn it.And his lips are dark and full and they're like bramble.And all I want to do is bend down and And he opens his eyes ..and squints.And he lifts his hand to cover them so he can see better.And he says, "We'd best be getting back." We all had on us the stench of death.The bread we ate, the stagnant water, everything we touched had a rotten smell.But that day, everything was OK.It was bright.And it was pure, you see? And nobody had seen, had they? I've done my bit.The officer mentioned that.Exemplary service.When he took me aside for a quiet word.And of course, what had Terence and me What had the Captain and me ..got up to? Sweet FA.But someone had seen us and ..they thought, "Hello, what's going on here?" And it's bad for morale and all of that, so I was to be sent elsewhere.And, of course, I didn't get to see the Captain, did I? Because he'd been transferred, too.I was packed onto this carriage ..sweat and tobacco smelling and fellas pushing up against you and shoving for room, and the train gives a great big lurch and then it starts off.I just sit down on the floor and pull me cap over me eyes and drift off.I don't know how much time has passed, but I wake up and it's dark outside.And the train's pulling into a station and in the carriage it's just these little night lights on - bluey.They make everyone look three-parts dead.And the train pulls into the station and it's going slow, like, puffing, like some of them boys in the resus tent.And then, I do see him.Terence.He's out the window, on the platform.Grey coat, hair tucked under his cap, neat.And he's talking to someone.And they must have made him laugh cos there's those little lines in his cheeks again.But he don't see me.So I push through the carriage past the other fellas and it's not easy now cos most have dropped off and I trip over some poor bugger and he curses me, but I make it to the window and I pull down the sash ..and the air outside is warm.And all I want to do is wave.But, of course, what can I say? Um "So long, Captain Leslie?" "So long, Perce." But then he does see me.He glances over, but he's still talking to his pal and just then the train lurches forward.The brakes go on and the blue lights go out and just like that, pitch-black.And all the other fellas in the carriage start groaning and someone says, "Oh, here we fucking go," but all I can feel is my heart beating and the air.And the darkness pressing against the window and my hand gripping the window ledge.And then someone takes my hand.Someone outside on the platform.And it's Terence.And he takes my hand and he just ..lifts it to his lips and he kisses it.There's no train then, there's no troops, there's no war.There's just his bramble lips pressed against the tips of my fingers ..and all the hair on my neck goes up on end.And then the train lurches forward and he's let go of my hand and all the blue lights go on, and Outside there's nothing but steam.Steam and darkness.Next Episode >Queers.

I couldn't wait to leave.I ran from that place.Well, metaphorically.Well, literally.They arranged a scrap with the comp across the field.I hated it.We were outside for hours last night, shifting around, trying to keep warm.Most people were in groups, actually.I don't know if they were friends or from, you know, Stonewall, that kind of thing.There were some banners and signs and people had candles.You needed candles because of how bloody cold it was, I'm telling you.Flipping heck! And there was a weird mix of excitement because of what it was and boredom because it took ages.And this lad looked at me a few times while I was there.I saw him looking.Caught his eye.Looked back.He was You know, he was lovely.I can be a bit shy.And then finally someone come out, must have said it had been done, whatever time it was, late, come out of the House of Commons.I couldn't see who they were and then you heard everyone starting to boo and you think, "Oh" You know, because we'd been there for so long because Well, I don't know how many people there were, but enough.You know, 200.Enough for it to feel like You know, because I'm used to being on my own.I don't know anyone else who's gay.And last night, there were loads of us, and we're nice, you know, I was looking round and I was thinking, "These are nice people." And so you start to think, well, of course they'll vote the right way.Why wouldn't they? What would be the point in not? You start getting carried away with reason.And I know you shouldn't do that.And so this bloke come out and he must have said they voted 18 and everyone started to boo cos I think we had all convinced ourselves it was going to be 16, you know, it was going to be equal, so it was like a It was like a kick in the teeth.And then we all sort of surged towards the Commons, towards the doors he had come out of.It just happened and police were there, a couple on horses, that kind of thing and And people are chanting and shouting and just sort of, you know, pissed off, you know, and there is a bit of a scuffle and I did think, just for a moment, "Is this?" Because a policeman's helmet landed at my feet.Yeah, but it was nothing really, and then someone shouted, "Let's go to Downing Street," and so we all marched up there and there was some shouting outside the gates for a bit and then we all went up to Trafalgar Square and a group of people started sitting in the road to block the traffic and Well, you go along with it, but I did feel a bit You know, self-conscious, I suppose.You know, but also, like You know, because I was pissed off, too, and the police were getting a bit Well, not mardy but It was late.I think we could all tell it had run out of steam but we were angry.That's the point.And so what do you do? So we did that for, you know ..ten minutes.Then everyone went home.And then you read this morning that there were scuffles between police and a minority out to cause trouble.And there was no minority out to cause trouble, it was sopiddly.There was a bit of shoving and a bit of shouting and that's all.But to read the papers, the bit there is, you'd think it was a kind of riot.That's kind of interesting, the distortion.I've never been a part of something that's been reported before.We were all just fed up.And so I'd missed my train by this point and this fella, Marcus, that I'd been sitting in the road with, he asked if I wanted to go back to his and I thought Well, you know, but what do you do? I had nowhere to go, and so I did.That's his name, Marcus.Of course it is, sorry."Mar-cous".We went back to his, his flat, and it was You know, I mean, it was fine.It was a bit Not It was OK.I think I'd thought, and I mean, this is stupid, I know it is, but I think I'd thought people in London London is just a place, isn't it? Like any other.I suppose you think, London You know, I don't mean to sound snobby.It's not snobby.I'm not a snob.My mate Sean is proper bourgeois, though he'd have you believe he's working class because his dad, I don't know, once drained a radiator or something, but I remember his face when I told him we had our tea on our laps on Sunday watching Bullseye, so I'm not ..you know, posh.Anyway, he was asking what I did, Marcus, and I told him I was a student and he said he worked for the BBC in accounts, so that's interesting, isn't it? Kind of.And I'd said from the start that I just needed a place to stay until I could get a train home in the morning and he said that was OK.I was giving off the right vibes, I think, so Yeah, it was cool.He's a lot older than me.He's 30, but he was You know, nice.He made us some toast and put the heat on, so it was fine.He had this jam that's made without any sugar.And we talked a bit.He said he'd been on a few marches and things.You know, not just gay, but other stuff.Poll tax, and You know, so it was interesting.We talked about last night and called them bastards and put the What is it? Put the world to rights.And then he said, "Well, at least that means you're legal now." You know, because I'm 18.I mean, I'm actually 17 but I'd told him I was 18 because I thought 17 sounded a bit young.That's stupid, isn't it? And I think when he said that, I thought "Right" You know? I just kind of laughed it off and then he said he should go to bed and he went to get some bedding for me for the sofa and I think he thought I was a virgin, which I'm not, but I mean Well, I'm not not a virgin.But when he came back in the living room with the bedding ..he was starkers and I thought "Blimey!" You know, but then I thought, maybe that's just what he does.Sean, my mate, sleeps in the nude.It never occurred to me that was a thing you could do until I stopped round his.Well, a lot hadn't occurred to me until I stopped round his.But anyway, so I was sitting down on the sofa and he dropped the duvet and pillows next to me.The duvet didn't have a cover on it.The things that go through your head! You know, I thought, "Mum would never give someone a duvet "without a cover on it." So then, he was there You know, "Hello, boys!" So I'm kind of And then he reached his hand out and he stroked the back of my head, just softly, and that was actually quite nice.That sounds pathetic, doesn't it? I'm not an idiot, I knew what Well, you know, cards were on the table, but I thought, he's letting me stay over and he's not Well, he's quite nice, you know, looking, I mean.He's all right.He's not Kristian Schmidt, but So I put him in my mouth.And that seemed to go down well.And then a minute or two later he stood me up and he kissed me and I thought, "Right, I've got to decide now, "you know, if I'm not up for this, "I've kind of got to say something now "because you don't want to be rude." But I didn't say anything and so he led me through into his bedroom and he said, "Is this all right?" And genuinely, for a split second, I thought he was asking about his room, and I did think, "Well, now we know what Athena does with its remaindered stock." But he had my top off by that point and I felt kind of separate to it, like I was watching myself, you know, like Brecht - verfremdungseffekt.And I was kind of talking to myself, saying, "Is this all right? Is this OK?" You know, keeping calm.In my head, not No, I think that might have put him off.But it was just nice not to be rushed because I suppose everything I've done up till now has been at parties with lads from college who Well, you've got to sort of take advantage of the moment.I say lads, it makes it sound like there's hundreds of them, there's not, believe me, really just me and Well, just me and Jamie Flynn, I suppose.And Sean.We Not, not regularly, you know, not If he's drunk and in the right mood, and I kind of know how to be in the right place at the right time, but Well, it's an art more than it is a science and you've either got one eye on the door or worse, you've got to kind of prep yourself in case he loses the mood or after decides it didn't happen.I don't mean nasty, but just So it was really the first time it felt legitimate doing anything - you know, with an accountant! I didn't have a clue what I was doing, I'll be honest, but Well, he didn't You know, he was nice, patient.He kept talking to me and checking I was OK.I almost wished he wouldn't.I almost wanted him to just go for it.Almost.And I think, weirdly, and this feels weird now I come to think about it, but I think because I didn't madly fancy him, it meant I could relax a bit more.It didn't seem as important as it might have done.I could just do what he told me and weirdly that was kind of easier.I think I mean, it wasn't easy really, but While we were doing it I can't believe I'm telling you all this.I had a real coffee earlier.I think it's kicking in.There was a moment where I was thinking, "Two hours ago I was outside Parliament "and they were saying I wasn't allowed to do this," and that made me laugh, and that turned him on because I think he thought it meant I was getting into it, and I was getting into it, but not because of Not just because of him.I was thinking about all the tossers who'd opposed it, opposed me, and I was thinking, "If you could fucking see me now." You know, fucking And that felt great.Oh, I felt great.You know, who'd have predicted I'd spent my first time thinking about Lady Olga Maitland and Sir Nicholas fucking Fairburn.I doubt anyone's ever thought about them while they're doing it before, including the people they're doing it with, if they do ever do it, the desiccated twats.I wasn't dwelling on them.I'm not a pervert.But it did give it a A frisson.HE CLEARS HIS THROA I've never said frisson before.I've only ever seen it written down.That's one of those words, you know, like hyperbole.And then, after, he turned the light off and he held me while he fell asleep and ..all I could think was .."I hope Mum and Dad weren't watching the TV news," because At one point, when we surged towards the doors of the Commons, that's when I'd seen the cameras.They had these big lights on the top of them, the cameras.You know, like spotlights, because it was dark, obviously.I'd been trying to stay behind this big bloke in front of me so I wouldn't be seen, but he moved out of the way just at the same moment that one of them swung round and I know it got me full in the face.If that's been on the News at Ten, I'm dead.So that's why I wondered if you'd seen it.Well, I'll find out later today, you know, when I get back.I mean, I was thinking about him as well, you know, Marcus.I was thinking, "He could get in trouble for this," but But then I thought, "Yeah, but who's going to say anything?" I mean, who is? Who really cares? Quite dry, aren't they, falafels? My friend Elisa, she's a vegetarian.I mean, not just a vegetarian, she's quite fussy as well, you know, fries everything in water.She's got this Futon? No, tofu, instead of chicken.Have you tried it? I had some once.I wouldn't go mad.It's not really a substitute.He's got his hand on his leg now.Those two blokes.It's just nice to see.You know, Nottingham, there's nothing.Gatsby's, MGM the first Monday of every month.But, here Well, it's not lunchtime yet.My two hopes are that there won't be much coverage of it and that's a good bet, and that it won't be on at all, or that they will only show one or two seconds so I'll be really unlucky if I'm on it, or that Mum and Dad weren't watching last night.Or that they were watching and I was on it but they didn't see me because they won't be looking for me.They won't be expecting me to be on it.They'll think I stayed around Sean's last night.I'm kind of looking forward to telling him about it, Sean.I think I'll feel a bit better around him now.You know, it was good fun.It's funny, isn't it? Because if they'd said yes, if they had made it 16 ..then I'd have gone straight home.< Previous EpisodeNext Episode > Queers. s01e02 Episode ScriptA Grand Day OutThere's a vegetarian restaurant round the corner.You know, just round A couple of streets from here.Does completely veggie.I had a falafel.It was nice.It was OK.Did you see the news on telly last night?

No.Ah, shit.Oh, well.Two fellas over there.Can you believe they voted no? Can you believe it? I couldn't believe it.Yeah, well, not No, I know, but 18.You know, it's almost worse than if they'd kept it at 21.There would be some honesty in that.We hate you and, you know, piss off.At least that would have been consistent but, yeah, we'll make you slightly more equal.Yeah, well, big wow! Of course it's better, I know that, of course it is.But, well, it's just It's 1994! You know, Jesus!

EP01 A certain liquidity of eye1917年，一位留着胡子，有些年龄的士兵向你诉说几段故事。

这让我顿时有种感觉，那种LGBT者互相吸引的魔力将他们的眼神凑在一起，让他们的灵魂遇到彼此。

站台上的那个王尔德消失在迷雾里，站台上缓缓松开的那只手消失在蓝色的灯光里。

就是那样一闪流光的眼神，有一种异常的坚定。

那是一个“承认自己便是罪恶”的年代，所以感触温暖成了一种奢侈。

It’s the Terence. And it’s me.EP02 That was nice1994年，一位十七岁的俊美男生，年轻气盛的精神样子。

16岁和18岁，不过两年的差值真的有那么重要么？

有，很重要，况且是对于17岁。

他身上有一股力量，青年人的冲动。

他老是说nice这个词，好像也是没有什么更贴切的词值得来形容昨晚的经历了。

尽是美好的，值得挂念的。

在最后，他低声说道“我看到了摄像机。

”我好像看到了害怕，又有一些的担心。

是在害怕父母的责怪吗？

那担心是为了什么呢？

可能是担心明年生日的到来吧。

该如何坦白这样一个真实的自己，对本人早已坦然，那对于老一代传统的眼神呢？

但相信，那一定是一次勇敢的演讲，无畏无惧。

It’s the Marcus. It’s his name.EP03 Got enough anger1987年，一位演绎了无数病人角色的演员，最后一次将死的样子。

Gay equals to ‘Got AIDS Yet?’. 人们习惯了吃着爆米花，聊着家常，假装怜惜那些大屏幕上将死的艾滋病人们。

“不过是因为脸罢了。

”不是出于对病毒的畏惧，不是出于对死亡的顾虑，而是出于对这些“怪胎”的嘲笑。

编剧刻意地隐晦着20世纪80年代的影视圈，更准确的说，是当时的普世价值观：将死之人必是同性恋，而同性恋必死。

最后一段的红蓝灯光交织在一起，给人一种似是似非的奇幻感。

他，破了诅咒啊。

AIDS绝不是Simon在厨房哭泣的理由，死亡绝不是将他们分开的魔咒。

真正可怕的是当你重新站在镜子面前，看到的自己，已经不是那个在酒吧充满笑容的你了。

你很害怕，你很软弱。

戏子演过再多的样子，也演不出自己的样子。

电影拍过再多的题材，也看不到社会的真实。

30年后的今天，想要拍这个题材的人找了个有趣的演员来呈现一个看似不沉重的话题。

但冰冷的历史就是狠狠地砸在你脚下，你要明白，愤怒是怎么来的。

It’s the Simon. He fits the bill.EP04 I'd miss you1957年，一位二婚的妻子，还有什么可留恋的。

前三集是queers自身的讲述，而这一集的旁观者视角，没有一丝的释然，没有一点的感慨。

只能哀叹历史的进程成就了一种爱情，也割裂了另一种感情。

像是历史阶段性的断层一样，总有人被落下了。

还没取名就得埋葬的孩子，还没稳定就得被人咬舌根的婚姻，Alice也向往轰轰烈烈的爱情，她也就是个普通女人而已。

作为同妻带给人的心酸让人不知道该怪谁，你该怪Michael吗？

他也害怕被旁人怀疑的眼神。

你该怪过早通过的同性恋合法化决议吗？

这次的认可已经晚了很多年了。

你该怪谁呢？

同样都是在追求爱情的自由，谁也没有错。

其实是早已自知的心情，不过是自欺欺人的借口来缓解对爱的痴求。

她知道自己身材有些虚胖，她知道丈夫半夜晚回家的意义，她知道婆婆刺眼的“安慰”早晚都会到来。

所以，放任他应得的自由，是最“残忍”的解脱。

她其实很苗条，他其实很温柔，只是他们不适合。

Michael, I’d miss you, long.EP05 I miss the secret1967年，一位白发苍苍的老人，脸上泛着阳光的耀眼。

这一集的视角看似在同性恋合法化的年代，但编剧却很tricky的选择了一位老“鸭子”的视角。

实则还是在表现几十年前禁忌的爱情。

六十年代的英国充满着逃脱禁锢的欢呼声，有人大声高歌着多年后争取来的平等，有人身体力行地表达他们的爱，有人却独自怀念着颠沛流离的年代。

在和平年代，人们往往不会想念战争。

但他却独想念苟且偷生的味道，那是每日每夜恐惧死亡后生的乐趣，那是重见阳光时候耀眼的光晕和微红的脸颊，那是在一遍遍死亡后看到天堂的样子。

久违的幸福，总来得恰是时候。

He's the god of mine. But I won’t tell you his name.
