- Michael Dean hosts a discussion about the two-part 'Man Alive' report on homosexuality in Britain. The panellists, writer Maureen Duffy, social psychologist Michael Schofield, Conservative MP Ray Mawby and an unnamed general practitioner, debate whether it was appropriate to show the programmes at 8pm and question the broadcasts' balance in only including homosexual contributors.
The conversation also covers wider issues, including people being blackmailed because of their sexuality, homosexuals working in positions of trust and the consideration that one in 20 people might be gay.
At the time of this programme's broadcast, doctors were not allowed to be identified on BBC television in case this was interpreted as an advert for their practice. It is for this reason that the GP is not named here.
This was filmed and broadcast shortly before The Sexual Offences Act 1967 came in to force which decriminalised homosexual acts in private between two consenting men who had attained the age of 21. It only affected England and Wales.
Ray Mawby banging on about risks to national security, when there was later found to be massive evidence that he spied against the UK for the Czech government.
Wow what an education into the views back then. Shocking. Thank God people did speak up and continue to do so 🙏🙏
Great to see Frank Skinner giving his views on this topic....who have thought it 🤣🤣
Well I'll be blowed. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I wonder if any of these people are still alive today? This was a very long time ago.

Their common condition? Ouch! Thankfully most of us have got different and better attitudes now. I don't give a toss what people get up to in their bedrooms. You're nice to me, I'm nice to you. Simple!
Horrible to hear that attitude from 1967. A different world back then, thankfully we live in a far better world now in 2023
Oh, get over yourselves
@@benisrood Flippant attitude from no doubt a straight person who doesn't understand

How depressing.
Weapon of mass construction yes. It’s very bad it’s now allowed

Strange how things change , I was arrested for taking a picture on my phone of a gay couple,plain clothes ,one and an off duty police officer.
That's a gay couple being oppressive !
Quite scary IAM a gay man I came out at 15 at the age of consent was 21 now at 46
"normal boys...not homosexuals"...?
That Tory guy is a horrible character, devious and creepy.
