　　上世纪六十年代，高中生托尼有两个好友，三人爱读书也热衷于谈论性，常聚在一起调侃戏谑。后来博学睿智的艾德里安也加入了他们，他的加入让这个小圈子发生了悄然的改变。
　　成年后的托尼结婚又离婚，退休后他的生活平静无扰。然而，一份旧日女友母亲的遗嘱改变了他生活的轨迹，迫使他回首探寻当年的谜团。他发现，曾经笃信的回忆变得疑窦丛生，曾经温良无害的自己变得面目模糊。当记忆欺骗了你，谁才能解读你的人生？

　　孩与枪，那种被逼出来的坚强与尊严，看得心酸。这世上还是有人要为性别，要为土地拥有权，为那不得安生的规矩拼命，太难。于是这题材，如今仍然觉得心悸。内容本身有震慑力，演员也有魅力，但确实可以拍得更好，让那些回顾更有力量，也让叙述可以更清晰明了点。不过导演才起步，期待下次。

　　Daniel Mays (Line Of Duty, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Public Enemies) stars in BBC Two's powerful factual drama as Peter Wildeblood, a thoughtful and private gay journalist whose lover Eddie McNally (played by newcomer to television, Richard Gadd), under pressure from the authorities, turned Queen's evidence against him in one of the most explosive court cases of the 1950s - the infamous Montagu Trial.
　　More than ten years before the decriminalisation of homosexual acts in 1967, Peter Wildeblood, and his friends Lord Montagu (Mark Edel-Hunt) and Michael Pitt-Rivers, were found guilty of homosexual offences and jailed.
　　With his career in tatters and his private life painfully exposed, Wildeblood began his sentence a broken man, but he emerged from Wormwood Scrubs a year later determined to do all he could to change the way these draconian laws against homosexuality impacted on the lives of men like him.
　　Daniel says: 「I'm incredibly proud to be part of a drama that tells such an important real-life story. Peter Wildeblood is a fascinating, complex, yet flawed character from a time when being a gay man in Britain was incredibly difficult - I can't wait to bring his tale to life for the BBC Two audience.」
　　Patrick Holland, Channel Editor, BBC Two, said: 「50 years ago, it was a crime to be a gay man in the UK. Against The Law is a stunning piece that melds drama and documentary testimony to tell the story of one man, and his wider generation, as they struggled to make society accept their sexuality as non-criminal. It is brilliant to have a film that brings the authorship of Brian Fillis, the vision of director Fergus O'Brien, and the outstanding talent of Daniel Mays and cast to this important subject」
　　The drama also features Mark Gatiss (Taboo, Sherlock) as Wildeblood's prison psychiatrist, Doctor Landers and Charlie Creed-Miles (Ripper Street, Peaky Blinders) as Superintendent Jones.
　　Woven through this powerful drama is real-life testimony from a chorus of men who lived through those dark days, when homosexuals were routinely imprisoned or forced to undergo chemical aversion therapy in an attempt to cure them of their "condition". There is also testimony from a retired police officer whose job it was to enforce these laws, and a former psychiatric nurse who administered the so-called cures. All of these accounts serve to amplify the themes of the drama and help to immerse us in the reality of a dark chapter in our recent past, a past still within the reach of living memory.
