It's A Sin: Meet the real Jill - the inspiration for Channel 4 hit show

In the 1980s, when Jill Nalder was studying in London, she noticed young men were leaving and not coming back.

They would go home and "sort of disappear." Her friends were dying, often in secret, of AIDS.

Her story is the inspiration behind hit TV show It's A Sin, penned by friend Russell T Davies.

Now when the Channel 4 programme is broadcast #bemorejill trends on the internet.
