We’re creating an online memory board for some of the UK’s lost venues.
We’d love for you to help us grow this historical archive of the UK’s lost gay scene. If you’ve got photos or memories of any of the venues you’d like to share please use the comment section below and we’ll add them right here.
Biograph Cinema
A cinema where gay men went, but not necessarily to watch films!
Memory from George:
There was a very well known Cinema called the Biograph in Victoria I think, lets say I really do not know anyone that went there to watch the film playing. I remember a friend taking me once and couldn’t believe how no one ever stayed in their own seats should we say! and forget trying to buy ice cream or popcorn!!

Help us deliver unique, usable and reliable journalism that supports the gay, bisexual and curious community of the United Kingdom. Can you help protect LGBT+ media? Publishers like us have come under severe threat by the likes of Google and Facebook. The problem is that advertisers are choosing to put their money with them, rather than with niche publishers like us. Our goal is to eliminate banner ads altogether on site and we can do that if you could pledge us a tiny amount each month.
We’re asking our readers to pledge just £1 per month, more if you’re feeling swanky. You can stop payment at any time.
It’s quick and easy to sign up and you’ll only have to do it once.
