It's not clear if Bean's character is a transgender woman or a mere crossdresser, but we do know that Bean plays English teacher named Simon who also has a femme alterego named Tracie.

Bean says he did his research for the role which was demanding in part because he had to get full body waxes. He told Radio Times, that he prepared 'by walking round in high heels in the kitchen at home" and went out with his daughter "aarm-in-arm" one night.
