The Bolton 7 take their fight for justice to the foremost arena of law.   The significance of this case extends far beyond the fate of the seven men involved. But how far have we come? Criminally Queer: The Bolton 7 looks back at one of the biggest miscarriages of justice in recent British LGBTQ+ history, and examines how this scarcely-known legal case played a significant role in the fight for gay rights. Hugh Sheehan speaks to author Shon Faye; author and host of the podcast Bad Gays Huw Lemmey; author and queer scholar Jack Parlett; and queer historian Justin Bengry. Criminally Queer is a Reduced Listening Production for Â鶹Éç Sounds Audio Lab.
