Torchwood: Is everybody in Britain bisexual?

I recently watched the 1st season of Torchwood, the Dr Who spinoff set in Cardiff, Wales. (is Wales like a separate country?) The show's not bad, but man! Everybody's doing everybody! Is this kind of sexual fluidity common in shows over there? I'm watching torrents of the show I downloaded so I'm can't see TV from over there normally.

Wales IS "like" a separate country; it's actually a principality. Scotland, Wales, England and Northern Ireland together make up the United Kingdom (aka the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland). "Great Britain" itself refers to the large island where Wales, England and Scotland are located. Wales has its own assembly, and Scotland its own Parliament.

As for the sexuality of Britons: no, of course not "everybody is bisexual." Don't make the mistake of stereotyping a country from what you see on TV! When I lived in Britain, I would sometimes have people would ask me if I lived in a trailer park back home... because they'd seen 'Jerry Springer' and figured that's what Americans must be like. So, all Americans live in trailer parks the same way all the British are bisexual.

TV in Europe is much less restrictive than it is in America, and attitudes towards sexuality are more open-minded than they are here. This is reflected in their television shows, but is not at all representative of how "all" people are.
