Homosexuality remained illegal between the years 1885 and 1967 with the maximum sentence for sodomy being life. In 1967, after suggestions from the Wolfenden Committee in 1957, homosexuality was partially decriminalised in England and Wales and males over the age of 21 were allowed to have homosexual relations in the privacy of their own homes. The armed forces, still forbade homosexuality in all forms. - Arrests for homosexual activities increased drastically after the amendment to law was made.
