The audio documentary "20 Years Out!" marks the 20th anniversary of the passage of the Homosexual Law Reform Bill in New Zealand. It draws from a multitude of unique recordings held by the Lesbian and Gay Archives of New Zealand to highlight attitudes towards homosexuality.

Comments range from MP Norman Jones' call for homosexuals to "go back into the sewers", to Alison Laurie's "be as gay and lesbian as you can - all of the time"

This programme was broadcast Sunday 9 July 2006 at 4pm on National Radio. Recording begins with a National Radio news bulletin.
