According to Russell T Davies in commentary that came with the DVD box set from 2003, he began writing the first script for Queer as Folk, which became the first two episodes of the series, in the last two weeks of February 1998. Channel 4 then okayed it around a month later, and filming finally took place between August bank holiday and December 19th. "We wrapped up just before Christmas."[1][2]
