In this show, we gloat upon the long-weekend just past when we celebrated ‘chocolate-rabbit-eggs’ days (?), and we discuss the life stories of two notable gay men.

We remember the regal spirit and tremendous breadth of mind in the 67 years of incredibly creative energy of Leonardo da Vinci – and we touch upon the comfort he found in the company of men.

We also celebrate the successful on-going career of UK singer Andy Bell – still on the music charts since 1985 with his band Erasure and proudly out as a gay & HIV-positive role-model.

Anniversaries around this time include movie star and singer Barbra Streisand and UK pop-singer Dusty Springfield, both of whom inspired a generation of drag-queens. Louis Pasteur also gets a mention for his discovery of the role of good & bad bacteria in milk.
