Was reading one of the 'About Time' books today. It mentions that Waris Hussein, director of An Unearthly Child was gay. Interestingly, apparently he and Hartnell got on pretty well. Which in some respects is surprising given Billy's reputation as an all round bigot. Maybe he wasn't as prejudiced as has been suggested?

I don't think William Hartnell was any more bigoted than the majority of fiftysomething men of that era. And for crying out loud, he was an actor. He must have been used to working with poofs. He may not have been keen on their private lives, but I'm sure he was professional enough not to give every homosexual he encountered a torrent of abuse.

Incidentally, when I used to work in Paperchase here in Brighton, Waris Hussein came in one day to buy a cardwith a man who I think must have been his partner. He seemed a very pleasant chap.
