Playland

Chilling. Candid. Controversial. This is the voice of one man from within a dark scandal that nestled in the heart of London’s Soho in the 1970s. 


Travelling to the big city to escape The Troubles in his native Northern Ireland, Anthony Daly accepted a job in Foyles Bookshop and began a new life in England.


However, his naivety saw him quickly fall foul of predators, looking for young men to blackmail and sexually exploit.


After years of hiding the secret of his abuse at the hands of some of the most influential men in the country, Anthony’s trauma became harder to contain as he witnessed revelations of historic abuse coming to light on TV and in newspapers. Then, finally his lost voice ripped through the safe family life he had built over 40 years.
