The BBC's First Homosexual

In 1954, the BBC made its first-ever documentary about male homosexuality. At the time, the topic was so taboo that the finished radio programme was promptly banned. It sat on the shelves for three years until a heavily edited version was broadcast in 1957. Then it was lost. All that survived was a forgotten transcript of the original recording, remarkably rediscovered after seventy years. With special agreement from the BBC, it is brought to life by award-winning writer Stephen M Hornby in a newly expanded dramatisation, directed by award-winning director Oli Hurst.
