Dekkoo In Depth: Ross sits down with ‘Peckham Mix’ producer Cedric Andries to discuss the new original series

To celebrate the arrival of the new Dekkoo-original comedy series Peckham Mix, Ross sat down with London-based producer Cedric Andries to discuss the show and learn how it came to be.

George Turner stars in Peckham Mix as Josh, a gay man who finds his life in freefall after being dumped by his fiancé. Now he’s reluctantly looking for a new place to live. He finds a seemingly acceptable situation with Rex and Connor (Kane Surry and Janak Nirmal), a mysterious couple who are in search of a new roommate… after their last one was caught stealing cars.

As the new trio get to know one another, Josh becomes fascinated by his new roommates’ bizarre 1:00 AM excursions. Encouraged to live a little and enjoy the sweet taste of revenge, Josh joins them on one of their outings, hoping to change his life for the better. The night, however, proves far more exciting – and dangerous – than he ever could have imagined.

You can watch Ross’s interview with Cedric below. And get ready to catch up on all the criminal activity in this brand-new, four-episode Dekkoo-original series – launching June 15th!

Get ready to dive into LGBTQ+ history with the upcoming Dekkoo-original series Historical Homos!

A brand-new Dekkoo-original video podcast series from Executive Producer Zachary Quinto, Historical Homos is a no-fucks-given guide to LGBTQ+ history! Hosts Donal Brophy and Sebastian Hendra are proud to introduce you to some of the gayest stories never told.

Buckle up for one of the most infamous-and lesser-known-gay couples in Greek mythology: Zeus and Ganymede, originators of the divine Daddy-Twink dichotomy. In Episode 1 of Historical Homos, we’ll discover what these myths tell us about ancient Greek homosexuality and how they provided much-needed PR for the complex reality between mortal sheets.

Episode Two tells the unbelievably wild and weird life story of the Chevalier d’Éon, transgender spy, soldier and sleuth of the Enlightenment. Assigned male at birth, Charles eventually transitioned to become Charlotte, before discovering the humiliating constraints of life as an 18th century woman.

William Shakespeare and Christopher Marlowe were both brilliant dramatists… and maybe bisexual? In Episode Three, we unpack the rumors, the hearsay and the straight-up gay poems that suggest these titans of English literature were also ridiculously good-looking… and gay.

Finally, Episode 4 offers up a review of the life and loves of Virginia Woolf. We dive deep into her affair with Vita Sackville-West, leading London lesbian of her day, and relive the parties thrown by the Bloomsbury Set, a group of young Modernists who continued the British tradition of plumbing the nation’s bottomless depths of homosexuality. (Or should we say bottom-full?)

The first episode of Historical Homos drops on June 9th with new episodes coming each week throughout the month of June!
