Really enjoyed it and loved the music. I was born 1970, so 80s was my teens, remember it all well. How people were treated because of aids, its sad to look back and see it, as its easy for us all to forget and like you said much like covid now.

Haven't watched it yet but looking forward to it.

Growing up and being a young adult in those days without the 'benefit' of social media made this a period in time where misinformation and prejudice was rife.

The Olive Leaf - I was living in Colchester at the time and the Fox & Hounds Little Bromley were our local gay pubs (late 80’s into mid 90s until I moved to London)

Ah yes, I know it well, it is now the Grinning Rat. At that time I was frequenting the Black Adder pub, and the Earl Roberts.

I was a nurse in a Haemotology ward in the mid 80s.

Scary stuff then with so little clarity on the way forward for treatment and so little known about the disease at all. So much scaremongering.

Sound familiar?

I take heart in our current circumstances how much more we know now about HIV/Aids, the treatments that are available and the prognosis for many.

The failure of our collective fears to manifest themselves is a triumph of science, determination and acceptance.

Looking forward to watching this tonight.

Really excited to watch it. One of our ex-pupils is in it so I’m very star struck at the moment!

I watched it all last night and today, really enjoyed it. It was shocking the way people were treated, I remember an 80’s storyline on Brookside about someone with AIDS, was treated like a leper. This show was fantastic, although very emotional. Hope you all enjoy it.
