On 1 July 1972 Ted Brown walked through central London, stopped at Trafalgar Square for a kiss, and made history.
He was at the event he had helped to organise, the UK’s first official Gay Pride, in which more than 2,000 people marched through the capital before holding a mass kiss-in.
Half a century later, his memories of the day are euphoric.
“It was amazing, I felt that we were continuing the legacy of the civil rights march.”
