Edmund "Bunny" Corcoran, and his possible bisexuality. First of all, I'm aware this is a very common concept on the fandom, but I'm still willing to write about it.

Bunny is well known for his deep rooted hate to homosexuality, which in their context makes sense since the homophobia wasn't unusual back then. The thing is, even if we don't consider the fact that he studied the greeks (which we can argue that he wasn't very aware because he got into that career because of Henry), he does give a lot of signals about his bisexuality, repressed, of course.

First of all, and one thing that I don't see people talk about: just the way he talked to Richard first. In their conversation, as soon as Francis was brought up and his homosexuality was implied, Bunny got defensive and claim that what Francis needed was a girlfriend to distract himself; and what did Bunny do inmediatly after? Talk about his own girlfriend.

This could be easly read as Bunny, unconsciously showing that Marion is a distraction of his likings, that he does get the attraction towards men, but he focuses on his girlfriend instead.

And clearly there are a lot of more hints, like his relationship with Charles (which I alredy talked about on a different post), and his need to assert dominance to Camilla when he told her to iron his clothes, emphasizing on his "role as a man", or his clear disgust towards Francis that could be understood as envy since Francis is not repressed as he is.

However, if I were to talk, Henry is the most evident. When Bunny and Henry were arguing loudly (mostly from Bunny's side), he called Henry a lot of things he considered negative: jew, nazi and gay. And after this, he fell sleep on Henry's bed.

All these things, that Bunny considered terrible and negative were meant to be hurtful, and it is obvious that the concept of gay stands out on these other adjectives because Bunny finds to be gay at the same level of being nazi.

He's deeply terrified of his own sexuality, yet he tries to fill this void with Henry's attention. He somehow tries to be as close as he can be to Henry without crossing the line of friendship: whenever he's in trouble, whenever he needs money, whenever he needs comfort (like sleeping on Henry's bed after a fight with him), all these are the clear signal of Bunny taking a partner role with Henry, on his own way. Which, of course, Henry isn't bothered about (as I said on another post, the greek class seems to take something alike a harem-dynamic, where their center is Henry).
