One of Amazon Prime’s most popular offerings is, of course, Transparent. With this in mind, I have gathered together a list of my top picks on the streaming site to save you having to do the leg work. The problem is, they’re slightly more difficult to find. While platforms such as the BBC, Channel 4, HBO, and Netflix are leading the way with LGBTQ+ inclusivity, Amazon Prime UK also has a range of shows and films on offer. In 2020 alone, we saw shows such as It’s A Sin, Feel Good, Euphoria, and Schitt’s Creek rack up astronomical viewing figures thanks in no small part to their authentic and thoughtful approach to queer storylines. Thankfully, over the past couple of decades, things have begun to shift in the right direction.

Creators would typically rely on archaic tropes that never came close to portraying the true beauty and complexity of queer communities. For many years, Hollywood and the wider entertainment industry proved woefully inadequate when it came to meaningful LGBTQ+ representation.
