It might be lazy blogging on my part, but I’ll just direct you to this great little interview of Sir Ian McKellen by Owen Jones. McKellen is, of course, one of my favourite actors, but he is also a great advocate of gay rights. Here he talks about the past, and about being a homosexual actor when it was still illegal. People like him have had to overcome so much. Towards the end of the interview he also touches upon his friendship with Sir Patrick Stewart, another of my favourites. In all, well worth a watch; there is much to learn from such civil rights champions.
