“It’s A Sin,” the UK miniseries that debuted in America on HBO Max February 18, began its long gestation in the mind of out screenwriter Russell T. Davies back in 1995, even before he wrote his first high-profile gay TV drama, “Queer as Folk.”

Olly Alexander, the lead singer of Years & Years, is starring in the new HBO Max limited series It’s a Sin and he’s opening up about his work on the show.

Unless you've been hiding under a rock these past few weeks then you won't have missed the buzz surrounding Russell T. Davies' acclaimed Channel 4 drama It's A Sin.

Elton John compared himself to Olly Alexander’s “It’s A Sin” character during a new interview.

Marc Malkin Senior Film Awards, Events & Lifestyle Editor It’s hard to imagine now, but “Queer As Folk” wasn’t immediately embraced in all corners of the LGBT community. “I remember when we went to film on Canal Street — it’s the gay quarter in Manchester — and there were bar owners who objected to the title,” “Queer” creator Russell T Davies tells me from his home in Wales.

Sir Elton John has compared "full of life" Olly Alexander to the late great Freddie Mercury. The 'I'm Still Standing' hitmaker has hailed the 'It's A Sin' star for being "hilariously funny" and talented like the Queen frontman - who died in 1991, aged 45, due to complications from AIDS.

As Russell T. Davies tells it, he could have written his acclaimed new series “It’s a Sin” a while ago, but, busy with all sorts of other projects, he didn’t get around to it until recently. The openly gay driving force behind both the UK and American versions of “Queer as Folk,” as well as a writer for “A Very English Scandal” and the remount of “Doctor Who,” he’s nonetheless happy to get his story of friendship during the beginning of the AIDS crisis out into the world. “I’ve been heading up to it all these years,” he told Georgia Voice.

Following the death of conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh, people are remembering one of his most enigmatic friendships in Hollywood: Elton John. Although the duo often stood on different sides of most political issues, John and Limbaugh had a friendship that was solidified in 2010 when the radio host tapped the singer to perform an 80-minute set at his Palm Beach, Fla., wedding to Kathryn Rogers.

Daniel D'Addario Chief TV CriticIn 2019, British television writer and producer Russell T Davies turned his attention to the future with the gripping limited series “Years and Years.” Now, he’s transporting us to a past that seems both distant and all too recent.“It’s a Sin,” which launches this month on HBO Max after a run on Britain’s Channel 4, follows a group of friends living in London through the 1980s — a decade that begins, for them, with the promise of liberation and moves, as the AIDS epidemic takes root, towards isolation and pain. The series demonstrates once again Davies’ masterful control of tone, shifting in five episodes from joy to the harder-won pleasures of solidarity in the face of crisis to — finally — tragedy.

Serving up Soft Cell on the soundtrack, and a sea of small-town boys in stonewashed jeans, HBO Max’s era-spanning limited series It’s a Sin (★★★★☆) brings ’80s London roaring back to life. The ensemble dramedy from Queer As Folk creator Russell T.

Maserati Quattroporte formerly owned by Sir Elton John is expected to fetch between £15,000 and £40,000 in an online auction. That’s a rather broad price range and a punchy upper estimate.
