John Barrowman

[Ndrangheta]

Exactly! No way is it acceptable to flash...

It's quite odd behaviour. Chris Evans used to do it too. Another odd man.

 

[Miss Begotten]

Another man who liked to make women look at his penis was called Colin Pitchfork. I'm not saying the cases are directly comparable but look him up if you haven't heard of him.

Seriously?
Barrowman is an unpleasant twat who probably needs some help with his issues, but comparing him to that murderous scumbag? Come on now.

 

[Eirawen]

Actually vile. Barrowman is one thing but the fact Noel kept repeating that ‘joke’ over and over again, honestly that video in itself shows what a twisted fuck he is.

But it sounds like John was also erm repeating himself.

 

[George Agdgdgwngo]

I think it would be fairly unpleasant for many male recipients as well.

It would be. Shame someone didn’t squash it with a frying pan.

 

[EastofHollywood]

I don’t disagree with your questioning, but I wonder if there are other occasions that he has behaved in this manner that have not yet seen the light of day . I guess this remains to be seen.

Apparently it was his 'thing'and he did it fairly regularly. It was basically a running joke to such an extent that the cast and crew of Doctor Who did a song about it!

 

[Prince fan 1999]

Comes across quite cocky, pardon pun... Reminded me I had seen this. All has been forgiven????

John Barrowman 'given second chance to make ITV comeback' after flashing scandal

ITV bosses have reportedly decided to give John Barrowman another chance after he was dogged by a flashing scandal and will make him host of All Star Musicals

Hope people see sense and don't watch.

Met him once he would put his arm round someone during a photo as he didn’t want to get the “flu”

'He wouldn't put his arm round someone' did you mean?

 

[VC10]

Anyone seen his video where he performs forward rolls down a hotel corridor starkers?
I still can’t erase the horror of it...

ugh

 

[House of Tea]

Sorry probably replied to the wrong post. I thought he’d been sacked from Dancing on Ice but he said in the Lorraine interview he couldn’t do it as it clashed with a new programme he’s doing. How very convenient!

Yeah right

 

[Mark81]

In fairness he used to have a small but strong following. Definitely used to be able to sell out a UK tour, and also used to be a big box office name in panto which is very lucrative. His career has really nosedived

Actually speaking of panto. Youtube recommended me this clip of John in panto several years ago. I'd always heard how good he was in panto but I'm actually surprised how unnatural his delivery is. It could be the recording bur it's all quite cringe (and I'm a big panto fan...when done right)

 

[Mark81]

Reduced to begging for roles on Insta?

Its a post announcing the Moulin Rouge international tour

 

[L3moning]

IIRC he claims that the Scottish accent is his real accent and the American one he starting using as a kid because he was at school in the US and didn't want to be bullied.

 

[Meowsy]

There were specific requests from the audience, like “John, you took your pants off during your panel yesterday, are you going to do it for us today?” which is the very thing he is being accused of. If somebody told Savile “you abused kids on camera, could you repeat that for us,” yes, I would say it’s the same thing.

 

[coconochanel]

I wonder if he'd think it was 'just a laugh' if a woman put her vagina on his shoulder?

 

[NonDairyQueen]

It's time the BBC or someone did an expose on itv. It's very clear they are covering up bad behaviour to protect their 'happy family' approach

The tabloids would have a field day if he was still on Doctor Who or Torchwood but they rely too much on ITV for content to make too big a deal out of this. And re: Barrowman, it was the execs employed by BBC Wales that let him get away with his 'horseplay' in the first place.

 

[Ndrangheta]

Saw him on Lorraine this morning, trying to weasel his way back. Sorry, but serial willy-showers aren't welcome anymore mate. Having said that, if we got rid of everyone with 'issues' from commercial TV we'd only have, er ... who WOULD we have left? LOL. James Martin? He seems alright.

 

[Captainmouse]

He is also therefore suggesting that all gay men would happily get their dick out and play with it on people. No, they wouldn't.

Gay men already have this obsessed with sex and dicks reputation, to dismiss what he did in such a way feeds that reputation.

And even IF the gay argument is accepted for women. What about straight and gay men on set.

Unfortunately he has been protected and enabled for so long he doesn't see a problem

I've just seen the celebs that are supporting him on Instagram post...actually quite disgusting. Especially Ashley banjo who is quick to jump on anything race related, but he is perfectly OK with this

Maybe towing the itv party line?

 

[Blackjack2]

‘They were like a family on set? I’m glad they are
not my family.

 

[MarshMallowMonster]

I did warm to John in I’m a Celebrity but think he probably needs to retire. There is no defense really for persistent penis exposure, and laughing about it.

For sure those were different times but by today’s fortunate standards, pretty despicable.

Imagine any other job where a coworker would be flashing his bits around! Ugh!

It’s a good idea to take some time off SM, his recent spat with a former friend / coworker seems a little unstable.

 

[Mark81]

Woe. Desperate times. These former 'Joseph'tours are pretty cheap and very minor.

Desperate times

John Barrowman set to perform in Swansea with fellow former Joseph stars

A TOP actor will be in Swansea for a special production celebrating a top musical.
