3 | Leaping Lesbians

As the Pink Singers belt out songs from the roof of Broadcasting House, they make a vital call: We need more lesbians. 

In this episode, Ali Milton-Doyle, a Pinkie who met their wife in the choir, investigates why it is so hard finding the early women of the Pink Singers, and how the experiences of her fellow femme Pinkies has changed with separatism, Section 28 and song.

Sing it Pink! is an Aunt Nell production for the Pink Singers. You can find out more about the Pink Singers at https://www.pinksingers.co.uk/ or follow them on Instagram or X @pinksingers.

The theme music was composed by Simon Pearson with lyrics by Jaie Monroe. The artwork was by Fredde Lanka.
