'On another project, I would have had my reservations about that.'

is such a unique beast. There are plenty of scary slasher moments, but then you suddenly wind up with 'The Thong Song' being played at someone's funeral. How do you navigate those changes in tone?

He’s very much like the gay stereotype that we’ve seen on TV quite a lot. He’s very flamboyant. I think on another project, I would have had my reservations about that. But because in this show we have so many queer characters that are so beyond just their label – because there’s so many of us, and that goes with race and gender identity and all of those categories – they’re fully-formed humans that are sort of hitting every point.

I really liked – I just said it before – the horror and the comedy are sort of mashed up together within that second episode where Jamie’s being chased by the person in the mask, he’s pushing through the fabric, and it’s a game of cat and mouse, and it’s all very tense.And then they pull back the curtain, and find Hamish making out with someone. Which I thought was really fun.Chris was like,"Just shout what you want."No other character would say that. But I felt like Hamish would.

Is there a particular moment of LGBTQ+ representation onscreen that's really resonated with you or changed your life in some way?. I remember just being like: my mind was blown that this show was on TV. I’d never seen anything like it. I remember sneakily trying to watch it without anyone knowing that I was watching it. Which is going to be true for a lot of people, still, nowadays.
