Nigel Chessum in Ghosts (CBS) [1.08 & 1.15]

Can we just talk about the subtle fact that Nigel seems to already be grounded and comfortable in his sexuality? Like, at some point over the last 250 years (or before he died), he clearly worked it out that he was attracted to men.

I mean, you can tell that Nigel is not as naïve about it as Isaac — in “D&D”, he was fully expecting Isaac to confess his feelings for him and he was ready to reciprocate.

And in “Thorapy”, Nigel tries to take things even further by inviting Isaac to spend his nights with him in the shed…and share his bed. The confused look on Nigel’s face after Isaac’s awkward departure suggests that he knows Isaac shares his attraction, but doesn’t understand why Isaac is holding back.

Poor Nigel! He’s being super patient and polite while also trying to be as open about his affections as he can.
