Jon Furlong and Ruben Reuter, the wacky drug dealers of "Pushers": Both are short, but which has muscles, which is gay, and which has d*ck pics?

Link to the n*de dudes

I was researching Ryan McParland, the Irish actor who plays the younger brother on How to Get to Heaven from Belfast, and I found a cast photo from Pushers (2025), a Channel 4 comedy. With two short guys.

Two short guys?  I'm definitely watching this show!

Turns out that Pushers is not available to stream in the U.S., but I watched some clips on Youtube.  

It stars Rosie Jones (below center) as Emily Dawkins, a woman with cerebral palsy who loses her benefits and needs some way to make money -- and impress her crush (a lady). Enter lovable doofus Ewen (Ryan McParland), who wants to "make money fast" in the amateur drug-dealing game.  He notices that Emily is invisible; people are disturbed by her disability, and pretend not to see her.  A perfect drug runner!

Emily suggests using her charity, Wee CU (providing accessible toilets), as a cover for the drug business.  And she recruits some other disabled people for the crew:

Hope (Libby Mae, not shown) handles the money-laundering, and pushes to expand the business into spice (an artificial cannabinoid).

Sam (Jon Furlong, left) became aggressive during her first drug sale, so she hired him as the muscle. He's garrulous and rather a tipster.

Francis Magee of East Enders (right) plays Lennie, an evil drug kingpin.

Short Guy #1: Jon Furlong was born in Manchester in 1986, and made his acting debut in The Last Kingdom (2018), playing Brother Godwin.  He went on to Ghosts (the British version), Odd Squad, All Creatures Great and Small, Adolescence, and Here We Go.  

Here We Go (2020-25) sounds particularly interesting: teenage Sam records his family's antics with a hand-held camera. Jon plays the mate of Sam's mercurial Uncle Robin (Tom Basden).  There are some gay characters.

It's available to stream on BritBox, which I don't subscribe to.  Grr.

Muscles: Definitely.  

Gay: Jon posts a lot of Instagram photos where he's hugging guys in various configurations, so he could be gay.

D*ck Pics: I couldn't find any, so I posted a n*de dude from Canterbury on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends.

More after the break.
