FRUITY NEW CHANNEL 4 DRAMA, BANANA, GIVES HANNAH JOHN KAMEN AN A-PEELING ROLE

Last week, Channel 4 announced the cast for Russell T Davies’ new, hugely anticipated drama Banana for E4. With a focus on exciting and emerging talent from the fields of acting, writing and directing, we too are proud to announce that our own Hannah John-Kamen will play the role of Violet: a feisty explosion of positive energy in hot pursuit of fellow lesbian Sian. Banana is a series of eight witty, charming and unique stand-alone stories, offering an often outrageous peek into the lives, loves and losses of the contemporary LGBT community. Banana, alongside Cucumber and Tofu, is one of three interlinked programmes for E4 devised by Davies, the creator of landmark series Queer as Folk, and it seems this witty, ambitious project is once again set positively to shake up the Channel 4 network.
