56 Dean Street’s web series The Grass Is Always Grindr is back. Handsome closeted boxer Adam (Taofique Folarin) and ‘loud and proud’ Insta-famous Joe (Denholm Spurr) struggle with their romance. In season 2 Adam tries to balance a HIV diagnosis against his upcoming fight, and PrEP-taking Joe ends up on the chillout scene. Francis (Jonathan Blake) has a fling with a twist, and Ryan (Matthew Hodson) confronts ghosts from the past.

There's always a need for lighthouses. The series nails it's target with an informed honest experienced and sincere approach based on the reality. It's rough out there. Without those who serve as lighthouses, there would only be a hopeless devastation.
so glad to see a web series tackling some of the less talked about issues that affect men (being drugged and male rape) well done to everyone involved.
Powerful episode. I cried several times during as it brought back so many memories of the friends I lost back in the epidemic.
Thank you
another powerful episode thanks so much to all at 56 and the actors and crew
Ohhh Joe sweetheart don't cry .. am crying too I don't want seeing you sad it makes me sad too .. Adam always looking out for you .. hope u realize it before it's too late
very moving end ! I am glad that his mum came round in the end! The mess our parents can make us! I loved what Matthew said about losing friends, we can't go through that again! Not ever, guys need to wake up to the damage they are doing themselves.
Don't miss the final episode. We plan to release it on Monday August 5th.
@@56DeanStreetOfficial Thats great I won't its been great but quite triggering for reminding me of how alienated I am from my sexual self, not having had sex in over three years because so I so utterly repulsive to most gay men because I am not built enough or attractive enough! Although I am blessed that I haven't fallen into substance misuse I just isolate myself instead! Thanks for making these.
@@NorthernFella We'll we've had a look at your blog and think you look great! Don't isolate yourself. Trust us, you're loads of people's cup of tea.
@@56DeanStreetOfficial Thanks I appreciate that!
Adam you hero! Again Joe doesn't deserve you.
Great episode, I’m weeping 😭😭😭😂
Another excellent episode. The storytelling, action, production and direction are superb.
Joe, it makes sense now. You poor thing, your parents failed you especially your mum. No woman should ever choose her husband over her son, no matter what, but I geuss she had her own reasons. You going to shoot me but I don't think Adam and Joe should be in a relationship, they both have a lot of healing to do. I'd love for them to be friends.
"Just take the fucken drugs" 😭 I heard you loud and clear.
Wow, I'm so emotionally invested in this series. Thank you for this
This is a good show. I'm really injoying it.
Happy to see that maybe he'll get the help he needs.
For those who likes The Grass is always Grindr, please don't hesitate to watch the French movie Sorry Angel by Christophe Honoré

👍👍👍👍
Damn...
I'm frustrated that the NHS has a drug available that would massively drop the infection rate for gay and bisexual men, yet it's unavailable! Has there been a campaign so we can start to make a wise opportunity to help the rest of us that are not into the Chemsex Scene and could obtain these medications NOW! If there not available on NHS how does a single man, looking to date and wants to take precautions by using PEP? How much does this cost out of pocket? Do we have a Campaign to change this regulation?
Hi Gary, you can buy PrEP from Dean Street or online suppliers. Details on this link dean.st/prepshop/ . The NHS has just reopened the PrEP IMPACT Study which offers NHS funded PrEP to people who meet certain criteria. Dean Street is one of the centre's offering it, but there are places all around England. Details here www.prepimpacttrial.org.uk
@@garygansbrubaker Hi Gary, Delighted to hear everything was OK when you went to the clinic in Oxford. Sorry to hear that you've had such a tough time in other parts of your life. You could book an appointment with one of our health advisor team by calling our appointments line on 020 3315 5656. If you can't get to London I'm sure the clinic in Oxford will either offer counselling services or could point you in the right direction locally. You could also try THT. They offer counselling to gay men in London and may know of services local to you. Here's a link www.tht.org.uk/centres-and-services/head-office/connect-counselling.
I only ever went with a ginger once. I ended up stamping on his pubic hair. I thought it was a rat!

Oi
I hope there will be organizations that help homosexuals .. because I could not provide asylum, I haven't any idea about it .. because I am an Arab :(
You may have to be your own hero. Realize the limitations of the environment you may currently find yourself in, and make real plans to go to where you can be yourself. Life is short.
Leftatalbuquerque I am currently studying in China. I may have a little chance but maybe they do not accept my application quickly. I afraid maybe expose and lose everything and return to my country .. I do not have any idea about anything that is really a nightmare :(
@@justsmile4071 One oppressive culture into another! Well, there you are. What would happen if you were to finish the year there, and apply to have your credits recognized elsewhere? You could finish your studying at another university in another country. Do you have money enough to do it?

Leftatalbuquerque Unfortunately, I do not have enough money. If I have , i will never Choose China, but I have no other choice. I wanted to get out of Yemen only , because it kills homosexuals and I will not be able to live my normal life so I had no choice but to travel.

😓😓😓😓
As a 40something gay this is simply horrifying. Are gay guys really like that now? In my day it was poppers and hooch lemonade to get high. The gay community has always been self destructive, but if this is what we've become, then it is truly heartbreaking.
It is! I recall the days before the meds (1995 onwards) I know people who were burying friends every month!
this is why I'm single, staying at home and happy
