Watch Queer as Folk on SolarMovie - Free & HD Quality

The television show "Queer as Folk," which debuted in the United Kingdom in 1999, follows the lives of three gay men who make their home in the neighborhood of Canal Street that is known as Manchester's gay village. Russell T. Davies is responsible for the writing of both the original Queer as Folk and its sequel, Queer as Folk 2. As part of the festivities to celebrate Channel 4's 25th birthday, the first series was repeated between October 14 and October 18 on More 4 in 2007. The television series "Queer as Folk" was created by the Red Production Company and broadcast on Channel 4. The phrase "there's nowt so queer as folk" was spoken in certain regions of Northern England. It translates to "there's nothing as strange as people" and is a word play on the contemporary English synonym of "queer," which denotes a homosexual orientation. The expression was used to give the program its name. This was the initial title that Davies had given to the series; but, at the advice of executives at Channel4, for a period of time during its creation and pre-production it was known as Queer as Fuck; after which, it reverted to its previous title.
