Summary

Ten years since 'Grindr Killer' Stephen Port's sentencing, the systems that should be protecting gay, bi and queer men are still failing them, letting vulnerable people fall through the gaps. Why haven't the police, healthcare, or the apps taken chemsex seriously? Reported by award-winning producer Rory Boyle, Catch Us When We Fall is coming soon.


QueerAF Uncovered is the home of documentary series from QueerAF. From deep-dive investigative exposés that hold institutions to account, building on our acclaimed documentary series like What The Pox? (the ARIAS-nominated investigation into the Mpox public health crisis) and The Other Blue Pill (the story of the battle for PrEP access in the UK)—each season uncovers the truth behind the headlines, hot topics and hidden history shaping LGBTQIA+ lives.


Produced by QueerAF, the award-winning non-profit and press-regulated publisher that pays, mentors and builds the careers of emerging underrepresented LGBTQIA+ audio talent.

    Ten years since 'Grindr Killer' Stephen Port, the systems that should be protecting gay, bi and queer men are still failing them and letting vulnerable people fall through the gaps. In episode one of six in this new series, Catch Us When We Fall, we explore chemsex and the role it plays in parts of the LGBTQIA+ community. From why people are drawn to it, to the complicated relationship between sex, drugs, identity and belonging, we ask how something that can feel liberating and communal can also leave people vulnerable to harm. Reporter Rory Boyle sets out his own connection to the chemsex scene, where we are in terms of chemsex crime prevention in the UK and beyond, the lasting impact of the Stephen Port case, and how we can create positive change.Told with harm reduction in the forefront and compassion for queer, bi and gay men at the heart of the story.
