Criminally Queer: The Bolton 7 is out now!

The 5-part series tells the story of seven men from the former mill town in Northern England who in 1998 had their lives turned upside when they were arrested, interrogated and charged with archaic crimes solely because they’d had consensual group sex.
Criminally Queer: The Bolton 7 - Welcome to Criminally Queer: The Bolton 7 - BBC Sounds
Hugh Sheehan explores how a landmark legal case changed the lives of seven men forever.
