The memory of so many lesbian bars, whose stories are integral to lesbian history, is in danger of slipping away. But filmmaker Jacquie Lawrence is determined to not let that happen to one of Britain’s most storied meeting places.

Gateways Grind revisits the colourful history of The Gateways Club. Open from 1943 to 1985, the basement bar was a haven for women who could meet with friends and lovers to commune, snog, dance, and have a rollicking good time. Broadcaster and former Gateways regular, Sandi Toksvig takes us behind the club’s iconic green door on a hilarious, scandalous and moving tour of this much-loved Chelsea bar.
