Billington/Straker Gay?

I don't know if you've discussed this topic before on
this forum, but it has been suggested in future
scripts that went unshot due to the cancellation of
the series, that Foster and Straker were at odds at
times due to the strain of a gay relationship between
the two.

This allegedly contributed to the breakup of Straker's
marriage and accounted for the fact that
Foster)himself was unmarried, and in real life Michael
Billington was gay and the cancer that killed him
relatively young and fast was related to a deficient
immune system caused by the AIDS retrovirus.

Again, since these are bona fide but unshot scripts it
may be irrelevant to this forum BUT in looking back
with hindsight I do see this tension there.

If this has been discussed, I apologize as I am new
here- could someone point me in the direction of the
topics if previously posted?
