    Apparently, gay characters should only be played by gay actors according to Mr. Davies. For authenticity. I recently played a man who is abusing his wife due to his inability to cope with her stroke. Now, I've never done that so why did I get the part? Is it because they thought as an actor I cld get inside the skin of a character. Isn't that what acting's about Mr. Davies or are we dealing with some form of discrimination? A form you wld decry. Heaven help us.

      That is typical of the BBC an organisation which is racist against white people, sexist against men and discriminates based on peoples sexual orientation (ie if you are heterosexual).

      There's a difference between understanding how it feels to be an oppressed minority and playing a horrible person.

      I can understand the ideal of a gay man playing a gay man will have a stronger performance and also would be an actor acting their truth
