| Synopsis | A story of passion, bravery and defiance set against the repressive and hypocritical attitudes of Edwardian England. Maurice's future is mapped out from childhood. Only when he goes to Cambridge does he start to question the expectations imposed upon him - by his family, by the British class system, by a restrictive society and by the legal and social taboos around homosexuality. His personal struggle to recognise his true self and accept 'the love that dare not speak its name' nearly breaks him. But this is more than a gay coming-of-age story. It explores our deepest insecurities - the need to fit in, having the courage to stand out and suddenly seeing society from the outside. |

A hundred thousand men will haul two and a half million limestone blocks weighing a total of six million tons up a building the size of a skyscraper using nothing but human muscle. On his first day working on the pyramid, one young man has to adapt quickly to a new life in a work gang where intense friendships and hatreds are forged in a feverish furnace of desert heat, brutal humour, backbreaking work, horrific accidents, drink, sex and death. And as the ghosts of dead workmates and visions of Amun Ra the Sun God elbow their way into Makhthon's dreams, something strange is happening just out of sight, on the higher ledges of the pyramid, where the workers are never allowed. Where does the stairway really lead?= |

| Synopsis | Pete Case used to be something - a leading Labour Party organiser in the local car factories. Now he struggles to get by as a decorator as immigrant workers undercut his best mate's firm, his son Mark can't get a job or onto the housing list and nobody, from his Labour MP to his granddaughter's teacher, seems to care. Then Pete finds unexpected hope: Gina is young, mixed race and standing for Parliament on a platform of helping the local community. She is standing for the British National Party. As Pete's rage and despair gradually overcome his longstanding loathing of the BNP, he is drawn into the world of Gina's campaign and finds himself entangled in a nightmare of political machinations that pit his closest relationships - son, best mate, lover - against his longest-held beliefs and newfound aims. |
