Since I watched this I had an unease - a smell! And now I’m thinking there’s a smell of James Frey off it https://www.theguardian.com/books/2006/sep/15/usa.world
Which ones?I get bad vibes about James English. He’s just another twat wanting to cash in on the vulnerable who find themselves in bad situations. Not necessarily talking about FH, but many of his interviews don’t sit right with me at all.
So you think Fiona is telling the truth about everything?Since I watched this I had an unease - a smell! And now I’m thinking there’s a smell of James Frey off it https://www.theguardian.com/books/2006/sep/15/usa.world
omg I forgot all about that guy!Since I watched this I had an unease - a smell! And now I’m thinking there’s a smell of James Frey off it https://www.theguardian.com/books/2006/sep/15/usa.world
I think there’s 3 sides to the story, Richard’s, Fiona’s and the truth is somewhere in the middle.So you think Fiona is telling the truth about everything?
He’s interviewed gangsters and it feels like they are being glorified. Ditto porn stars and OF folk. The one that really plays on my mind is the poor porn star Sophie Anderson that died shortly after the interview. She had been through so much and the interview felt very wrong somehow. But in a way it was good that it was showing the damaging side to porn. She was clearly incredibly traumatised and completely desensitised to what she’d been through. And it was shown as entertainment. Tragic.Which ones?
I’m like a dug wi’ a bone. Fight me!Of all the bullshit Fiona came out with I didn't realise the grading of her degree would be such a talking point
Thanks for confirming, that's exactly what I thought. Same on my qualifying course, for two modules we got an email with a % indicating a grade, but on the transcript it's just recorded as a pass because those two were just pass/fail. But you still knew if you did well or not because you got the email. So she knows she did shit on the degree and just didn't want to say that.You get marks for each assignment/exam you do and then the subject is a pass/fail. The overall degree is then a pass/fail based on how you done in the subjects.
Sorry! I was just interested whether it was the case that she was ever actually any good at law and just went loopy later on, or if her perceived legal aptitude was yet another thing all in her headOf all the bullshit Fiona came out with I didn't realise the grading of her degree would be such a talking point
A wee green spot is probably just a pimple, a whitehead, a plouk. Whatever you call it. She was just recalling the moment where he supposedly propositioned her, while making a negative comment about his skin/appearance at the time...One more thing. I think I've just realised what "wee green spot on his face" means. I think it means he had a bogey on his face. That's been bugging me for days!
Showed her colours. Whether or not the BR story is 100% true or accurate she had to get her abusive digs in to somebody she claims she only met 5 or 6 times. Big. Red. Flag.A wee green spot is probably just a pimple, a whitehead, a plouk. Whatever you call it.

'That's not exactly flattering'Amazing biscuit shop in the southside of Glasgow, I'm sure FH won't appreciate the likeness of her rude cookie
All solicitors are searchable on the SRA register in England & Wales. If she’s not on that she isn’t a solicitor. Even non-practising and prohibited solicitors are listed on the register. I’m sure there is also a Scottish equivalent.Does she claim to be a practising solicitor. Wouldn't that be easy to find out? Wouldn't her colleagues or clients come forward?
I have so many questions but don't think we'll actually hear much more
Did they have that disclaimer from the start? I’ve seen people on X saying that has been added recently eg since it’s come out some bits aren’t trueI don't get why everyone cares about It being a true story. It was never described as a documentary, people are wild! It is an theatre to screen production of his truth; a dark comedy and psychological thriller. It literally states it in the credits so I just don't understand what the concern is (can't screenshot because of Netflix encryption):
"This program is based on real events: however certain s characters, names, incidents, locations and dialogue have been fictionalized for dramatic purposes."
Feels like this backlash he's getting when Fiona Harvey has basically outed herself as someone who stalks and harassed people is probably the reason why most victims of anything often don't speak up at all or do when their abuser has passed away. I hope things change going forward, it's already so hard for victims.
PS, because I started watching it while cleaning the kitchen, not only did I watch it having heard nothing about it, but I also didn't know that it was true or that RG played himself until after I had finished it.
No, no disclaimer at the start. Just the "this is a true story" at the end of the opening scene, it's in the same typography as the typed up emailed on screen throughout the show. It's the in the credits where they list it.Did they have that disclaimer from the start? I’ve seen people on X saying that has been added recently eg since it’s come out some bits aren’t true
I know. I mean from the start of it being on Netflix as on X people claim it’s only been added to the credits recently, that when people watched it at first it wasn’t there.No, no disclaimer at the start.
