On 24 August, lawyers representing Vue Cinemas admitted that it was unlawful to refuse to screen the Voices of the Silenced, a documentary about people who have rejected their gay lifestyles.

Originally due to be shown in February at a London cinema, the host of the private premiere, Mike Davidson, was emailed by Vue the day before the screening, cancelling the event. Vue paid Mike Davidson’s compensation claim in full after the cinema group admitted breach of contract. Vue sticks by its claim that showing the ‘ex-gay’ film would have breached its corporate values.

The Vue Cinema in Piccadilly also said that the film ‘may be unlawful.’ However they never explained how that could be true.
