I came across this and was absolutely captivated.
A hidden and difficult subject dealt with sensitivity and humour.
The men in the pub saying how they never talk about “their nobs” made me think about how women have started to share their lives on places like Gransnet.
We think men are ok but the horrendous suiside totals show many are struggling, and not talking.
Also it’s not just sex! It’s so much more. It’s about pair-bonding, self worth and just intimacy.
The young couple where the wife had survived cancer was heartbreaking. So much unsaid. A wonderful film about an important subject.

We watched it and loved it. Quite quirky in places but worth it.

I’ve just watched this on catch up, quite poignant in places, an interesting docudrama about early Viagra trials in the UK.
Anyone else seen it?
