Brett Adams
Brett Adams (born 29 December 1976) is an English singer, songwriter and actor.
He gained prominence as Noddy in CBBC's Byker Grove (a character best remembered for being the first teenage gay character in a children's drama).
After leaving Byker Grove he went on to hit The Official Charts and perform around the world in boyband Point Break.
Brett played Noddy, one of the main characters who first appeared in the 1990 series of Byker Grove and left in the 1995 series staying for 6 seasons.
The character is best remembered for being the first teenage gay character in a children's drama. Brett's portrayal of Noddy and that famous kiss scene (the first kiss shared between two men on children's TV) when Noddy kissed his friend Gary (George Trotter) at the cinema was the first time sexuality and dealing with coming out had been tackled on a children's show and the moment went down in history.
After the episode aired in 1994 it was on the news and in the papers and there was a lot of negativity from the British press, which even led The Sun newspaper to call for producer Matthew Robinson to be sacked at the time.
But Brett also received a lot of letters from youngs boys saying how much it had helped them coming out and not feel alone, Brett said in a recent interview with Attitude Magazine, "If my storyline upset 10,000 people but helped one person then I see it as a monumental success."
Brett Adams character Noddy Inspired many long men in Britain growing up and Noddy's final scene in Byker Grove when he drives away from the Grove in his boyfriends jeep even inspired writer Russell T Davis to pay homage by making the lead character Stuart in TV series Queer as Folk drive a black jeep. Davis said in an interview with Attitude Magazine "One of the few fan letters I've ever written was to the man who's producing Byker Grove, because in the second year they did that story," said Davies, "Noddy got a boyfriend, and they had to write them out because they had nowhere else to go. But they drove off together in a black jeep. It was so fantastic to watch that on children's television at ten past five in the afternoon. And you were sitting watching it thinking: 'They have sex! Those two boys have sex! They're not showing it, but they absolutely have sex. That's fact.' And the black jeep became one of my favourite symbols of gayness."
