A crowd of people showed up outside the Conservative Party headquarters in London yesterday, for a protest with a difference. Advertising itself as a ‘gay flash mob’, LGBT film distributors Peccadillo Pictures were handing out free copies of their film, The Gay Bed and Breakfast of Terror, in protest at MP Chris Grayling’s support of The Swiss Bed and Breakfast, whose owners refused entry to a gay couple.

Simon Savory, who helped organise the event, said that although the film was billed as a ‘horror comedy’, ”it is nowhere near as horrifying and unfunny as the opinions and ideals of the Cookham B&B owners”. Copies of the film were also sent to Mr Grayling and the Cooksons, who own the B&B in question, as well as to David Cameron. Whether or not the potential future Prime Minister enjoyed the film is left unanswered - as of this morning, he was unavailable to comment.

Peccadillo Pictures, who describe themselves as “not afraid to get political every so often”, are the distribution company behind the gender-bending romcom-with-a-difference, Butch Jamie, and this year’s London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival hit, Along Came Lola. Today also sees the release of their widely acclaimed lesbian drama,  Producing Adults.
