Lost Spaces: Memories from Gay Bars, Lesbian Clubs, and LGBTQ+ Parties

The Duke of Wellington, Islington, London (with Timberlina)

Isn't that just the way? You wait months for one bearded drag queen to show up, and then two arrive a week apart!
One week after schmoozing with Diana Fire I had the utter joy of chatting to Timberlina about living in Dalston in the 90s, how to cruise in the pre-internet days, and the perils of falling in love with a police officer.
Find out more about Timberlina and The Duke of Wellington pub in Islington, London on this week's episode of Lost Spaces.

How do queer spaces help to shape people's lives? 

Why are they so important to the LGBTQ+ community?

What is the impact of losing these spaces?

Lost Spaces explores these questions (and more!) through conversations with members of the LGBT community. 

Each week host K Anderson sits down with a different guest to discuss a space from their past, why it was important to them, and how it helped shape who they are. 

Expect conversations about coming out, going out, and getting down. 

And snogging strangers on sweaty dancefloors. We can't talk about gay history without that coming up.
