Russell T Davis's AIDS-era drama for Channel 4, starring Neil Patrick Harris, Stephen Fry, Keeley Hawes and Olly Alexander.

The five-part drama follows a group of friends navigating life and the Aids crisis in London in the 1980s.

At the start of a new decade three young gay lads, Ritchie, Roscoe and Colin, begin a new life in London. Strangers at first, they and their best friend Jill find themselves thrown together and soon spend much of their time together.

But a new virus is on the rise, and soon their lives will be tested in ways they never imagined. As the decade passes, and they grow up in the shadow of AIDS, they’re determined to live and love more fiercely than ever.

Hedonistic, proud, emotional and ground-breaking. It’s the story of friends, lovers and families, set to a thumping soundtrack of the growing gay scene of the 1980s.
