A love story – not a trans story.
A new BBC sitcom, Boy Meets Girl, is to be aired from 3 September, which portrays a transgender woman, Judy, entering a romance with a cishet man, Leo.
Thankfully, the main character will be played by transgender actress Rebecca Root, so we can only hope that the BBC stay true to their word, that this will be about a love story and not a comedy about trans people. Only time will tell.
