It’s a dehumanising term, but Charlie uses her voice so cleverly – with humour and honesty. “The label “trans activist” can be a club with which to beat trans people. Juno Dawson always had Craggs in mind to play her protagonist. I’m so honoured to be part of something so sacred to so many”. She’s played by transgender activist Charlie Craggs, a scene-stealer in her first ever acting role, who describes her casting as “a huge step for the trans community. The leader of the gang (and the drama) is a trans woman, Cleo, who works as a theatre usher, lives on a south London estate and is saving up for surgery. The friends are university dropouts, who now live in different UK cities but stay connected via their hobby podcast.
