The Fabulous 'Gay Icons Exhibition @ The National Portrait Gallery!'This is one of the last opportunities to view this wonderfully interesting photographic exhibition as it is soon coming to an end and the first time the gallery has exclusively featured gay people and gay icons. The exhibition explores gay and cultural history through the unique personal insights of 10 high profile gay figures.The chosen 10, including Sir Ian McKellen, Elton John and Billie Jean King, were asked to choose 6 of their heroes from whom they have found inspiration. Both gay and straight icons are featured, some from political, artistic and musical worlds, some heroic, some very famous and some relatively unknown.Actor/Presenter Sandi Toksvig and chair of the selecting panel commented, " I do think people are going to be very surprised by the names on this list. They are personal choices and the selectors have found inspiration in different places. Every kind of human being is in this selection and I think it is absolutely fantastic."following our thoroughly interesting exhibition, we head to our swish dining experience @ our restaurant known to be...
