Sadly, it wasn't de rigeur for singers, actors, film stars to be open about being gay back then.

Wilfred Brambell, who played Albert Steptoe, was gay. He lived with a man for many years but, when questioned, he had to pass him off as his valet. :(

Thankfully, we've moved on and people can be much more open about their sexuality without being vilified for it.

Expect there are a load more we didn't know about too Margaret, and present celebrities, although not the same 'stigma' today .. who cares a hoot anymore.
