Interesting in the itv video that Alan Carr also ‘joked’ about walliams’ predatory behaviour, they all knew .
Yep. I am sick of the cosy industry coming out with faux outrage. All complicit.

Someone seriously needs to blow the whistle!!

as far as jonathan ross is concerned he met his wife when she was 16 and he was 26, I know that as a 26 year old I would not have had much interest in someone 10 years younger, he has always given me the ick, solidified by the whole sachsgate episode. You only have to look at his daughter to get the impression that as a family they are weird

I'm disappointed in HarperCollins, they did an investigation into Walliams' behaviour in 2023 and it ended with no action against him but one of his VICTIMS was fired with a fairly measly payout and a great bit non-disclosure contract!!!

Haha is that the script/novella he wrote about middle aged teachers raping schoolboys at a posh boarding school?

The other thing that stood out to me in the Guardian coverage is Walliams apparently 'admitting' he was a 'sex addict'.

I've met a few so-called sex addicts (I'm in a 12 step fellowship, not for sex but you get people from other fellowships passing thru quite often if they need a meeting and can't find one for their particular addiction that day) and I don't believe sex addiction is a thing. It mainly seems to be a cover for pervos and predators to cloak their nefarious desires in a disguise of 'sickness' so that they get sympathy and don't get questioned too much
I do believe sex addiction is a thing, but that only a few who claim to be so that are actual sex addicts. I quite agree that it's often used as a sympathy tactic and a get-out-of-jail-free card for the most heinous, though.

he is obviously disgusting but the things that are described in the documentary don't sound like anything that can be succesfully prosecuted IMO.
Grooming (sexual communication with a child) is a crime, even when there has been no phyiscal contact. I do think it sounds like there would be grounds for these charges. I'm sure there will be worse coming out, disgusting man.

JR is made of teflon I swear, never liked him especially after the Sachs VM scandal. It is refreshing to see so many wrongens finally getting their comeuppance though, long may it continue and get women to speak out!! They're very brave to do so, but the tide is turning for sure.

I think there has to be - otherwise his reaction looks over the top.
Disgusting as he is, and as horrible as the allegations are, it doesn’t appear SO FAR, that he’s done anything illegal.

Sucking the breast and trying to put your hands down the front of a 15 year old girl's trousers is illegal.

But as I've just said, grooming is a crime and it appears that there is evidence of him grooming multiple underage girls and then, once they were at the age of consent, arranging to meet them. That is illegal. Also, according to the Guardian article, he had sexual contact with a 15-year-old. Also illegal!

Yes there are definitely crimes aplenty already. And I'm sure there will be more to come out. Men like him can never resist taking any chance they can.

The law definitely needs changing. You can legally have sex with a 16/17 year old but if you have nude/sexual photos of them it's illegal. It's ridiculous.
I agree. I actually think 16 is too young, and certainly too young if we’re saying it’s legal and permissible for a much older man to have sex with a girl (or boy, for that matter) of 16.

Yeah but then it's the no true scotsman fallacy isn't it? With other addictions like drugs and alcohol, which are what I'm recovered from, the addictions become physically very obvious when they are chronic. Same with sugar addiction, gambling etc etc. So-called sex addiction, you have no symptoms other than what the person claims, and therefore it gets abused as a disguise so much it's pretty meaningless imho. It's like trans, there is no evidence other than what the person claims.

I've never met a so called sex addict who wasn't a total pervo and using it as a cover.

Anyway Tattlers, X is a shitshow right now. The entire British Mainstream Media Establishment has turned into the spiderman pointing gif. Everyone's accusing everyone else of being predatory, enabling predatory behaviour, being mates with a showbiz predator etc. They're all in the mix: David Bddiel, Owen Jones, Jonathan Ross, Stephen Fry, almost the entire standup comedy world, Nick Cohen, one of the blokes from Kneecap, duck me even Juie Bindel's caught a stray.

Watching the ITN documentary. The victims are so young and there’s such a power imbalance.

I said this when the Schofe story broke that 17 is such a grey age. Not an adult yet sex is lawful. It’s a loophole that predators abuse!

In the documentary didn’t it say it was a celebrity’s wife who approached her and told her to be careful?

Yet another reminder, grooming laws also apply to adults. You do not need to be under 18 to be the victim of grooming.
