From the writer of Doctor Who and Queer as Folk, Russell T. Davies, comes Logo TV's two newest series: Cucumber and Banana.

The half-hour Banana will follow the individual lives of younger characters orbiting around Henry's world, telling stories of modern love - the romantic, the obsessed, the hopeful, the lonely, the lost, and the lucky.
