She's been taking hormone blockers since she was 11 and is now anxious to start on the next phase of transitioning. She's always been certain of her gender identity - it's other people who are the problem. Over the course of a week away in Manchester, she falls in love, experiences her first kiss, meets the inspirational Kate O'Donnell, deals with challenging counter-views on trans-gender politics and learns that being trans is just part of her life - not all of it. Episode 5: Amy takes a positive view of her eventful trip to Manchester and her first romance. Ryley and his mum have farewell gifts for Amy. They've touched each other's lives in significant ways. And Amy makes an important decision before she sets off home to London.
