Colin’s story in Ted Lasso suggests pathway to Self-acceptance for gay footballers
Published by Jon Holmes on
After three seasons, the AFC Richmond journey is over – and with it, the conclusion of Colin Hughes’ story; in the final series, viewers saw the Welsh footballer forge a bond of friendship with journalist Trent Crimm; in Pride Month, it’s the sort of positive LGBTQ+ representation we desire in the game…

“An endless longing for friendship” – that’s the English translation of a line of poetry engraved at the Homomonument in Amsterdam.
The memorial is the location for a conversation between characters Trent Crimm and Colin Hughes in the TV show Ted Lasso.
Spoiler alert here for anyone reading who hasn’t yet seen ‘Sunflowers’ and thinks they might. This sixth episode of the final season is wonderfully written, and worth a watch just on its own.

Trent Crimm in Ted Lasso
Trent Crimm is one of my favourite queer characters of the last five years or so. He has an incredible arc for a secondary character!
So imagine my surprise – and indignation – when I saw Twitter pontificating Trent ‘serves no real purpose’ in Ted Lasso! (Yes, yes the finale was excellent … we all know this, everybody loved it, now: RANT INCOMING!).
The evidence that anyone – least of all wannabe screenwriters! LE GASP – believe Trent is ‘pointless’ shows how minuscule people understand the purpose of secondary characters in screenwriting.
Sure, they *think* they know the purpose of secondary characters … but 9/10 in their have spec screenplays, they just have a colourful cast of random characters orbiting the protagonist or antagonist randomly.
Hell, some of those random characters may even be interesting, playfulness, or whatever. But they really perform serve no purpose in pushing the story forward.
This is NOT the case with Trent Crimm in Ted Lasso.
This is what Secondary Characters DO
The limited version: a secondary character’s job is to HELP or HINDER the main character. Sometimes people call
