#168 - How Russell T. Davies Changed TV with Dr. Emily Garside
Description
We're so excited to be joined by Dr. Emily Garside to talk about her book, Gay Aliens and Queer Folk: How Russell T. Davies Changed TV. We nerd out about Russell T. Davies' entire writing career and how he changed the landscape of queer and working class characters on TV, and how Wales and the UK as a whole has been impacted by the phenomenon of Doctor Who. We also discuss the positive queer representation in other shows like Schitt's Creek.
