On this day in 1980: February 10: 'Gay Life', the UK's first LGBTQ+ TV series dedicated to showcasing LGBTQ+ life, premiered on London Weekend Television (LWT).

The show was one of the earliest TV platforms for queer stories and voices on British TV, discussing everything 'for and about gays' at a time where representation was slim.
