Best British 2023

Expressing Myself

This Programme will broadcast on Channel 4 on Thursday 9 November at 2:50 am, and will continue to be available until October 2024.

60 Mins

A chaotic night as a cabbie with less than ideal customers; tackling grief directly and learning to move on; reuniting with distanced family and dealing with the revelations that follow; and an insight into a magical queer existence. These stories celebrate the freedom of gender expression and difference, our main protagonists are trans but the experiences of family, work, and identity are universal.

HERE IS THE BEST BRITISH TRAILER

Un noson anhrefnus yn gyrru tacsi gyda chwsmeriaid llai na delfrydol; mynd i’r afael â galar yn uniongyrchol a dysgu sut i symud ymlaen; ailgysylltu â theulu dieithr a delio â’r datgeliadau sy’n dilyn; a chipolwg ar fodolaeth queer hudol.  Mae’r straeon hyn yn dathlu’r rhyddid i fynegi rhywedd a’r gwahaniaeth rhwng y rhywiau, ac mae ein prif gymeriadau yn drawsrywiol ond mae profiadau teulu, gwaith a hunaniaeth yn gyffredinol.
