Wetherall didn’t do a lot before – and after – QaF (on screen). Later in the show he died of HIV complications. “Who?” – Yes, you probably don’t even remember Vic, but he was there for 4 seasons, as “Uncle Vic”, the older gay dude who remembers those “crazy times” of the 70’s.

Randy Harrison – Justin Taylor (Current Age: 38) Photos: Showtime / USA Networks He never became a big star after QaF, but appeared on several TV shows, such as “ Desperate Housewives”, and more recently – “ Defiance“. Harold was 31 at the time of Queer as Folk, but still has his good looks today. The world is divided into two camps – those who adored Brian Kinney (and his looks) and those who… didn’t.
