10 Most Emotional Moments In It's A Sin

10. Roscoe Leaves Home

Omari Douglas plays an incredible part as Roscoe Babatunde, a young British man of Nigerian descent, whose family attempt to send him back to Nigeria after finding out he is gay.

It is the first scene with Roscoe's family in episode one which hits home straight away as to how ignorant (and sometimes brutal) attitudes were towards gay men in the 80s, when his family attempt to exorcise his sexuality from him. This is then followed by a moving scene where his sister urges his brother to flee his home, because he would be killed if he was sent to Nigeria because of who he is.

Easily the most outgoing of the main group, Roscoe is clearly confident in his own sexuality throughout the show, but the moment he breaks down in his sister's arms clearly shows his own feelings of pain and vulnerability, and hits home some of the sacrifices many members of the LGBT community had to go through in that period.
