Re: Jeeves & Wooster fandom confessions - more history

I canvassed some friends:

Brideshead Revisited - to see how homosexuality can get buried and disappear in fiction written during the period.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Another_Country_(film) This sounds perfect!

A few episodes of "Downton Abbey" set in the 1910s and 1920s is actually supportive of the stereotype of Benevolent Aristocrat, but it has a lot of info. The character of Thomas Barrow, the gay footman, is well done. S3 eps 7 & 8 has the best portrayal of a gay man "outed" in an extremely cruel way. See if you can find them online.
