I loved the original show and I’m so glad it’s come back. Anyone watching? It’s not Trinny and Susana and I’m not sure how pc it is but it’s bloody addictive!

OTT behaviour around the firemen.

Do love the mix of the Fab 5 and it'd be interesting to hear more about their stories. That's actually my fave bit. From what it's like growing up in America as a black man, to Tan's memories of his father, to Antoni talking about his coming out & finding himself.

On an aside, Johnathan needs to cut his hair. Can't take any advice he gives seriously until then. Also I want Tan to take me shopping. Oh and I want to marry Antoni even though his cooking don't impress me much.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karamo_Brown read under personal life. Bless him.

I loved it. I didnt know we are allowed to say queer.

I hope we dont try to do our own uk version as this is just perfectly OTT. I loved it.

I LOVE queer eye, such a wholesome, kind, inclusive show. But....what age do you think it's suitable for?
I think it's values are good for any age but there is a bit of sweary (mild) and talk about growing up gay. So from what age do you think it's suitable?

I dont know really. My teen nieces love RuPaul and that is too much at times but then they are 16. I think the 13 year old will like Queer Eye.

I absolutely love this show! Karamo is so gorgeous and lovely. Re; that Wikipedia page, I wonder why he has custody of his son and his half brother now? Maybe the mother died or is in jail?

I am very cross that there are only eight episodes. Dh loves it too, as does ds and his gf. It's so much more than a makeover show.

According to a gay friend: we can't say "queer", just like no one white can us the N word, or male can call someone a Bitch.

I really loved the red neck guy, he was sweet.

Adore QE!!! So disappointed I've just finished the last one.
Jonathan just makes me laugh & Karamo is seriously hot!!
Hope Netflix have commissioned a second series.

Queer is fine to use as long as someone identifies as such. Just don’t use it if you’re unsure. As someone who is LGBT, I doubt anyone would get offended unless it was used in a nasty way.

This has got to get a second series! It’s been huge.

This has been one of my favourite things on Netflix and I was sad there were only eight episodes. Love Tan and his hair is amazing.

We can absolute say 'Queer'. Just not as an insult- but then we shouldn't really be saying anything as an insult theoretically. Queer is queer. It's fine.

I love the new series of QE. I feel like the people that they chose to help were from a really broad spectrum of society- but they all had one thing in common- "Toxic Masculinity" was holding them back.

Basically showing them that taking time for yourself, your mental health, your emotions and your relationships is not a sign of weakness. It makes you a better person by being happier in your own skin.

Just a gorgeous show.

Lemonade I saw an interview with Karamo where he said that he has a great relationship with the boys' mother, she was his high school girlfriend and his last heterosexual relationship. Not sure why he has custody of them though.

I love this show and it was also interesting to see something filmed ouside of NYC/LA which we always see on TV. Hope a second series is coming soon!
