In May 2022, the BBC announced that Davies had cast Rwandan–Scottish actor Ncuti Gatwa in the role of the Doctor; Gatwa will be the first black actor to portray the series' lead role. Cucumber focuses on the life of the middle-aged Henry Best ( Vincent Franklin) and the fallout from a disastrous date with his boyfriend of nine years, and is accompanied with Banana, an E4 anthology series about younger characters across the LGBT spectrum on the periphery of the Cucumber narrative, and Tofu, an online documentary series available on All 4 which discusses modern sex, sexuality and issues arisen during the show with the cast and public. The plot of Century Falls is driven by a legend that no children had been born in the eponymous village for more than forty years.

Boyce later commented that without Davies' input, the show would have been a "dry run" for Abbott's hit show Shameless.
