Filmmaker Don Boyd began this affectionate and moving double portrait of a middle-aged homosexual ménage when the prospect of gay marriage was merely a gleam in Ken Livingstone's eye.

His protagonists, Jeremy Trafford and Andrew Thomas, are respectively a pukka ex-executive and English teacher, and a charismatic former bus driver. Love across the class lines is combined in this clever film with cogent and heartbreaking reminiscences of what it was like to be gay in Britain before one was allowed out.
