Looking for a genre

I love fics with the guys in an established relationship, or 'older boys' stories. Of the many I have read recently, most of them contain the dilemma of being 'outed' as being in a gay relationship and B &D often discuss whether to tell Cowley or not. The supposed /perceived view of that era was the premise that a gay man or couple in a high profile job would be a potential security risk due to the possibility of blackmail.
So I am wondering - are there any fics out there that deal specifically of the boys being outed, either with or without Cowley and the Establishment's prior knowledge of the relationship? A full 's**t has hit the fan' tale with newspaper reports, photos, being tailed by reporters, family anguish, call for public enquiries and questions in Parliament? How would that affect CI5 and the A Squad? What pressure would be on Doyle and Bodie and would they hold together or fall apart?
Does anyone know of such a fic? Or want to pick up this hopping bunny :-) ?
