Sam Retford on Ackley Bridge (2018)

Episode 10 of the UK series Ackley Bridge's second season focused on Naveed (played by Gurjeet Singh) and his coming out story. After his mother discovers he's gay, he leans on his best friend Cory (played by Sam Retford), who takes him in and supports him, despite his fears for what it means for his family. The two spend the night together. Sam is shirtless for one scene, as the two chat in his bed. Ultimately, Naveed realizes that the night they spent together doesn't mean Cory is in love with him, though it does give him the courage to come out publicly.
