Notorious comedy queers Caitlin Powell (flame-haired stand-up menace) and big idiot from RuPaul’s Drag Race UK Kate Butch are delving deep into their childhoods, reliving films, TV shows, and snacks, to see if there’s any way of pinpointing the things that made them the queer icons they are today. For a healthy serving of nostalgia through the gayest lens imaginable, tune in to Queers Gone By every Throwback Thursgay! From the CBBC classic Tracy Beaker to Disney Channel favourites like Hannah Montana, via niche Dutch cartoon Help! I’m A Fish, we’ve been taking a trip down memory lane every week to discover the things that made us queer, camp and generally iconic! Queers Gone By is your one stop shop for nostalgia and the unpacking of repressed childhood memories (but in a fun way)! Got an idea for something for us to review? Thinking ’these are things that made me queer’? Follow us at @queersgoneby and let us know!

This week, we can show the things we know on The Shiny Show! We also learn a lot about swimming pools and ASMR. We're not sure how we got here either. Regardless, we were distracted by shiny things and were lucky enough to hear a new song!

Every day when you're walking down the street, there's a chance that you'll be accosted by queer anthropomorphic animals. They'll steal your bike, kick a bowling ball, marry your sister - what a wonderful kind of day. #CanAardvarksBeRacist

It's the start of something new, and we're seeing in 2020 with a trip back to High School. A film standing at the intersection of sports, science, and theatre. A paragon of musical innovation and basketball excellence. All bangers, no mash.
And bumspray.

Well, Kenneth Branagh...

Join us on another festive experience, as we explore sub-zero kidnapping, set to the angelic voice of Aled Jones - that's right, it's THE SNOWMAN! Raymond Briggs' classic is brought to life before our eyes, before (spoiler alert) melting in a puddle of disappointment and knitwear.

Let's get ourselves back in that wardrobe, but this time, let's meet TILDA SWINTON. The androgynous icon tries to stop global warming, but is foiled by four posh/queer children (wait til you find out what Edmund's up to now), there's a lion, etc. etc. You know the story, but this time - there's a budget!
