"We Bury the Dead": Tasmanian zombies, oppressive heterosexism, and Brenton Thwaites' dick. What else do you need? Gay people? Tasmania?

Evan Ovenell: The gay-subtext guy of "Heartstopper" and "Harry Potter," MMA fighter, barrister. With some dicks and Hagrid's butt.

The Heartstopper Forever podcast interviews each of LGBT couples of the series.

Charlie and Nick (Joe Locke and Kit Connor)

Darcy and Tara (Corinna Brown, Kizzie Edgell)

Elle and Tao (Yasmin Finney, William Gao, left).  (Elle is a trans girl)

But what about Christian and Sai (Evan Ovenell, right, Ashwin Vishwanath)?

They are members of Nick's rugby team and inseparable companions.  Christian takes awhile to realize that Nick and Charlie are boyfriends, not "good mates," which Sai finds annoying.  They stand by during the homophobic bullying incident, but later apologize.

I see the way you're gazing at him, buddy.

Just kiss him.  You know you want to.

I get it, with a gay power couple and two LGBT side couples, there's no room in the scripts for a fourth, so their romance has to stay subtext.  But it's enough to suggest a profile.

There isn't much about Ashwin available.  The IMDB says that he has another acting credit besides Heartstopper, playing Chef Rao in We Are Vegans (2016), but that's probably another Ashwin Vishwanath.  There are several out there, including a theoretical physicist and a Bollywood actor.

And whoever belongs to this cock.

But Evan has a resume and an Instagram account.  In addition to Heartstopper, he has done voice work in the full-cast audiobooks of the Harry Potter series (2025-26), 

 Not the movie cast, of course.  Harry is voiced by Frankie Treadaway and Jaxon Knopf (left, on his way to prom in a car full of boys. 'Nuff said).

Ben Lewis Doherty: Doc Martin's Plus One, a gay journalist, and the son of a gay gangster. All by age ten. With Smith dick and Pelphrey penis

 I've been watching Best Medicine (2026), about a curmudgeonly doctor in small-town Maine, where there are at least three gay characters: Greg and George, who run the only restaurant in town; and sarcastic high school student Liam.  But could there be four?  How about 10-year old Peter Cronk, played by Ben Lewis Doherty? 

Kids are usually presented as straight by default, to promote the myth that boys are born longing for feminine smiles, and "turn" gay as as teenagers or adults.  But you never know.

Peter appeared in eight episodes in Season 1, and displays queer codes in most: 

Episode 5: He wants to stay after class after to help teacher Louisa, and the other kids make fun of him, thinking that he has a crush on her.  He denies it; he's actually interested in the astronomy presentation she's preparing.  A denial of heterosexual interest.

Later he tries to "fit in" by putting a whole apple in his mouth, and can't get it back out again.  Doc Martin cuts it out, and tells him don't bother trying to fit in, just be yourself. The oral fixation and the "be yourself."

Episode 7: On Halloween, the townsfolk put on a haunted house called the Blood Factory.  Peter hates it: he gets so scared that he wets his bed.  Doc Martin suggests that he face his fears, so he dresses as a vampire. And bonds with a buddy.

Episode 8: Peter is rather swishy as he criticizes Elaine's true crime podcast. (Femme behavior).  

 Afterwards, her cameraman Al (Carter Shimp, right) calls her his girlfriend, and she shoots him down: "We're frisky friends, that's all."  Hurt, he quits.

 "What's a frisky friend?" Peter asks.  Lack of awareness of hetero-romance terminology.

Episode 10: Trying to spend time with Doc Martin, Peter comes in every day with invented symptoms, and invites himself along on his birdwatching date with Louisa.  Are you looking for a father figure, or do you have a little crush on the Doc? 

Later, he complains of a stomach ache, but Doc Martin thinks he's faking -- until the pain spreads to his shoulder, and his spleen ruptures!  Tense scenes in the ambulance on the way to the hospital.

Episode 12: Peter asks Doc Martin to come to his school presentation on Norway, since his mom works and his dad doesn't care about him. Doc Martin says he's too busy, but shows up anyway.  Peter is overjoyed, and hugs him.  More crush potential.

Episode 13: Peter is the ring bearer at the wedding of Greg and George. The teenagers attend the weddding, but he's the only child, suggesting a special affinity with the gay guys.

 At the reception, he sits at Doc Martin's table as if he's the Doc's Plus One.  

It's probably not canonical, but it's enough to check out the other work of the 11-year old actor.

Ben Lewis Doherty lives in Massachusetts, where he began modeling and acting at age six.  His first on-screen role was in the short Weighted (2020): Macauley (Hudson Koonce) longs for the times when he lifted weights with his dad, before MS took its toll, so he strives for one last bench press.  Ben plays the young Macauley, and the cast includes bodybuilders George Sandalakis (left), Ismail Bronson, and David Arquilla(below).

Nice company for your first acting role, kid.

Next Ben appeared in Haze (2024): Joe, a young journalist (Cole Dolman),  returns home after rehab, uncovers the secrets of the town's psychiatric center, and gets a boyfriend (Brian J. Smith, nude after the break).  Ben plays the young Joe.

A gay character, already!  Things are looking good for you, buddy.  Plus you're already buddying up to hot guys like Cameron Matheson.

Stephen Schneider's Extensive Nude Scene: A Gemstone Gem.

 

In The Righteous Gemstones Episode 3.6, singer Judy Gemstone has an affair with sleazy guitarist Stephen (Stephen Schneider).

He sends a sext to Judy, but "accidentally" sends it to her husband BJ (Tim Baltz) as well, to let him know what is going on.  

BJ feels emasculated, and figures that he must beat up Stephen to "be a man" again.

Pretending to be Judy, he arranges a hookup at Stephen's house, and finds finds him masturbating in the bedroom.  The result is a 5-minute long fight between BJ and the naked Stephen, his cock and balls not only visible but emphasized throughout.  

They originally planned to use a prosthetic, but Stephen insisted on choreographing the scene using his own equipment, resulting in the most extensive full frontal shot in television history.  Probably movie history, too.  

1. Stephen stands up on the bed to defend himself from BJ

2. He grabs BJ and pummels him.
