Men Only Complete Series 2001
Warning
strong language nudity sex and drugs
Five ageing mates play football together every
Tuesday evening. They lose every game but don't care because as
soon as the match is over they hit the pubs and the clubs and
gradually their lives spiral downhill.
Men Only is the antithesis of the current trend for cool
laddy drama. It doesn't glorify the action of the men nor does it
place them in some cartoon world. What is most striking about these
men is their apparent normality.
Writer Richard Cottan, believes this is one of
the most challenging aspects of the drama, especially for women:
The premise that the man women viewers are sitting next to is
potentially the same as the men on the screen is a difficult one:
"Take that guy on the sofa and try to imagine him out of the room,
away from his partner. Imagine him feeling frustrated and
undervalued. How can that escalate with other men who feel the same
way?"
Producer Jake Lushington says of the drama: "It
is a world where men seem to be much more schizophrenic, sneakier,
guilty, demanding lots of emotional support but also wanting the
respect and power which their fathers had but has been lost to them
for a generation."
This loss of power is darkly observed in the
various degrees of sexual dysfunction in the group. Jason uses sex
as a power base, Jamie can't perform, Des is cowed by circumstance,
Mac has a low sperm count and Dwight is almost disinterested.
Richard Cottan elaborates on this theme: "The sexual side of the
men's lives informs all others; if sex is denied, if it's
distorted, undervalued, it festers and has no proper outlet."
Director Peter Webber was drawn to the project because he found it
the most painfully honest account of male sexuality he had ever
read. "Male sexuality has some very dark corners. Also I found each
of the five men instantly recognisable as people I'd either met or
knew."
