The bond formed between these two differing groups is at once hilarious and touching as they overcome their differences to fight for a shared cause. The film, 'Pride,' gained national recognition when it hit our screens, not only winning a BAFTA but making over £4 million for the UK box office. The film brought a previously unknown story into the public domain, preserving it as an important event in British social history. This book is a fully authorised tie-in which relates the story in full, giving extensive interviews from many of those involved. The accounts relayed offer an eye-opening perspective of a chain of events which began to bring the LGBT community, wider acceptance in Britain.
