You've been added to the group chat. Each week we invite our celebrity guests into the group chat and ask them your questions. Quick fire questions, honest answers. Anything goes in the group chat.

This week we're sliding into the DMs with Russell T Davies, the TV icon behind Queer as Folk, It's a Sin, Doctor Who and now Tip Toe. He reveals the hardest scene he has ever had to write and what he said to a TV exec who told him to give a character a tick because they were boring. He also shares the news that It's a Sin is coming to the stage as a nationwide ballet tour, and gets candid about when he first felt seen on screen as a young gay man and how that moment changed everything.
