Character guide
Stuart Bayldon
At the end of a shift, Stuart just wants to go home, lock the door and keep the other 'naked apes' out. Those misanthropic tendencies are the source of ongoing friction with Maxine who is, to all intents and purposes, his only friend. Unbeknownst to her, and against his better judgment, Stuart secretly finds himself wanting to re-join the human race. To be with someone. But surely not Maxine?
Rachid Mansaur
Rachid is a man with a naughty past that's always threatening to catch up with him. Behind the constant shagging and non-stop boasting about his sexual prowess, Rachid's biggest worry is the niggling self-doubt that the girls he sleeps with only ever view him as an exotic - Muslim - sideshow, and never the main event.
Ashley Greenwick
Young, handsome, and a bit of a lad, Ashley thinks he has it sussed, knows how to play the game, and always keeps his cards close to his chest. His only problem, as a gay bloke who doesn't actually like other gay blokes, is that he's never in the biggest game of them all.
Sgt Maxine Fox
Maxine is a sergeant in the West Yorkshire police force and, to all intents and purposes, Stuart's only friend. Little does she realise that Stuart has started to have romantic thoughts about her...
