Various countries across the world now accept and attest the freedom to choose and put that freedom above taboos and cultural norms. The Bisexual TV series on Channel 4 is a comedy that explores the last taboo and the identity loss when it comes to people who are bisexual.

The Bisexual TV Series Plot
The Bisexual TV Series follows New Yorker Leila who is feeling lost in London having decided to go on a ‘break’ from her 10-year relationship with girlfriend and business partner Sadie. Walking out of their shared flat but still faced with the new hell of watching her ex every day at their joint tech company, Leila ends up hiring a room from neurotic novelist Gabe (Brian Gleeson), a Hackney-dwelling 30-something dwarfed by the success of his debut novel which came out years ago and has long been forgotten.
Leila begins sleeping with men but struggles to come out as bisexual to her gay friends, most importantly her best mate, the near un-shockable Deniz. She finds an unlikely sidekick in Gabe. He helps her wade through a new life dating men and women – and Leila, in turn, introduces wide-eyed Gabe to the London lesbian scene, whilst doing her best to help him understand his unreadable, sort-of-girlfriend, sort-of student Francisca.
As Leila makes changes, so does Sadie – changes that take her in a very different direction.
