For me, the most intimate part here is not the kiss or the confession, but the vulnerable look Craig gives JP on the stair at 3:59, and the way they hold hands to walk up a few seconds later. Their tryst here is not frenzied for once, but considered and sweet and intense.
3:13 that might be the most meaningful thing anyone ever said to Craig, a lad used to being pushed around and bullied and held back by others. JP gives Craig the choice but also the challenge--'what are you gonna do (for yourself)?'--and Craig for once rises to meet it.
I love and hate this story line and I always have. It’s not until I came out as Bisexual as to why this storyline irritated me! Craig is clearly bisexual or at the very least bicurious. Why do tv programmes erase bisexuality? It’s actually so frustrating!
I agree. Apparently, Guy Burnet (Craig’s actor) never saw his character as bi or gay or pansexual. He said in past interviews from 2007-2008 that he played Craig as someone who truly was straight, but who happened to fall in love with his best friend. Not because John Paul was a man, but because they just had an intense connection that transcended sexuality. But who knows. I always figured Craig to be on the queer spectrum - he always seemed rather camp.
it's been awhile since the last time I watched this but can't get enough!!! Please bring them back. I LOVE YOU MCDEAN FOREVER!!! :))
