BBC's Lesbian Mini Series 'Lip Service' Offers Up Hot Teasers: Video

For those chomping at the bit for an L Word-esque redux across the pond, the wait is nearly over with the BBC’s six-part lesbian drama Lip Service fast approaching its Oct. 12, debut.

Mistresses' scribe Harriet Braun penned the series about a group of Glaswegian lesbians starring Nina’s Heavenly Delights’ Laura Fraser as Cat the architect; hot blonde and Spooks’ star Ruta Gedmintas as Cat’s ex Frankie, a photographer with shades of Shane; Coronation Street’s Heather Peace as a police sergeant with the gender neutral moniker Sam, The Palace’s Fiona Button as Tess and Hollyoaks' Roxanne McKee as Lou – more gender neutral naming – a closeted daytime television star.
