Plot

Terry, an average, heterosexual man, advertises for a lodger for his flat in Streatham and Julian, a flamboyant gay Channel 4 celebrity moves in. Julian soon disrupts Terry's mundane life, turns the flat into something similar to an 18th-century Turkish boudoir and disrupts Terry's relationship with his girlfriend, policewoman Rene.

Unusually for a sitcom, Terry and Julian breaks the "fourth wall" by recognising the studio audience and viewers, and employs use of audience participation.

gollark: I mean that you can get more "variables" by using pronouns (if/he/she/they) because they have genders.

gollark: I don't mean distinguishing words which are the same except in gender, that's stupid.

gollark: You know what would be cool? Dynamically generate new API versions for no reason.

gollark: Well, yes, that's basically what I'm talking about - you can use genders to reference three or so at once.

gollark: Or to have a convenient short way to say "the noun I said 3rd most recently" or somethin.
