Just trying to clarify why he was a criminal Tealeaf so that people didn't get the idea he'd got a sideline as a burglar or something. I didn't say that being a homosexual was a crime. I said he was convicted of being one and of having a personal relationship with another man.

As you so rightly say, since 1957 that wouldn't have been a crime.

Being a non-active homosexual wouldn't have been a problem but there were, and are, many heterosexual males who didn't have long-term relationships and such a person can esily be a security risk if seduced by a wily female.
