It's a Sin

I came across this by mistake when I couldn't reach the remote while feeding my baby and I'm so glad I did. I ended up watching the whole lot!

It's brilliant. Nothing short of amazing.

I loved every single character and they are all superb actors but the girl who played Jill was out of this world.

I was a teenager in the late 80s/90s and was scared to death to be gay and to have anyone find out. There was/is so much hatred in the world and so many people died of AIDS for no reason other than the hate in people's hearts. I listened as my religious family cheered AIDS for "cleansing" the world. So much hatred. So much misinformation. A stigma that to this day still exists.

This show reminds us how strong the LGBTQ+ community has always been and will continue to be.

If you want to laugh, to cry, to remember, and to understand, watch this show. It is well written and well acted. I wish it was more than 5 episodes, but in a way, the shortness of the show is ironically symbolic of the speed at which so many lives ended.

I watched this and was shocked at how brothers, sons were treaded in the 80's and 90's for being ill.

The writing and screen play was brilliant. This can be a little graphic, but that paints a picture. Doesn't matter what you believe or think, everyone deserves love.

This is the type of thing we should have seen at school rather than Philadelphia. Time to accept and love one another.

I haven't been able to switch it off, thank goodness for All4! Channel four and RTD, you have truly delivered here with this wonderful five part series. Sexy, funny, moving, sad, it has a bit of everything going on.

Despite all of the glitz and fun, there is a harshness that arrives like a knockout punch, how on Earth can something be so much fun, and then turn so bleak, what an astonishing mix.

I would highly recommend it, great characters, great stories, and the production values are off the scale, the really have managed to bring the 1980's back to life.

Russell T Davies, it breaks my heart that you aren't on hand to save Dr Who right now, but when you're making content like this, you keep at it.

I loved it! 10/10.

This was an education. It's brilliant, it's fun, there's an outstanding cast and it is absolutely heart breaking. I hope everyone involved in this show is so so proud. Sorry this isn't much of a review, it's hard to put in words how I feel after watching this. Just give it a go, with an open heart and learn and respect. You will laugh and you will cry.
