Welsh company, Epiphany Creative Solutions is filming a 5 part LGBT Web Series. The Programme is called Boy meets Boy and follows the story of Matt after he comes out of a five year relationship with his boyfriend Kyle.

Plunged into the new way of dating with mediums such as apps, online dating and the unwritten rules of surviving in the gay community, Matt struggles but luckily, his best friend Damien is on hand to help him.

Joshua Thomas, who plays Matt and wrote the script said:

“This series is important to us as a team as it will help us to break the barrier of ‘LGBT’ stereotypes.”

“It’s our goal to show another side to a mostly unknown world and will hopefully give other LGBT members a show that they can enjoy and hopefully relate to in terms of the situations that our characters find themselves in.”

“I’ve run a LGBT coffee morning and really enjoyed learning other peoples stories and finding out that though we’re different people, we all come together as one at times and it’s something that inspired me to write this series. “

Filming is currently taking place in and around Llanelli and the series will be premiered in March with an online release following.
