❝I don't care about the money, but I do care about how men like me are shoved into corners and masturbated in the dark and then thrown out the door like we're dirt. Like we're nothing, like we don't exist. And all the history books get written with men like me missing. So, yes, I will talk, I will be heard and I will be seen, Your Honour. You can pay me or not pay me, I don't care. But the one thing you will not do is shut me up.❞

I decided to give A Very English Scandal a watch because I adore Ben Whishaw and Hugh Grant, and I ended up really liking this miniseries. I hadn't heard about the whole affair before this, so at times I was a little confused since everything moved so fast, but it was very interesting and well-written. The aforementioned actors did such a fantastic job as Norman and Jeremy respectively, but Ben's performance really broke my heart, especially in the final episode. If you're a fan of dramas based on true events, I'd definitely recommend giving this series a go; it's relatively short and absolutely chock-full of venom and the effects of class, not to mention the great dialogues.
