Russell T Davies gives me the ick. Clear penchant for younger men, the latest of whom he seems to have charmed with a Dr Who set photo shoot.
Least he's a grown Man though, to me I think aslong as the other person isn't only just legal then go for it

I'm sure more will come out on how they met and the alleged victims exact age.

As atm the only facts seem to be serious sexual offences over a time period of 3 years
Separate allegation of inappropriate messages ( which has no timeline so could be from when it happened or recent, also inappropriate covers alot of options)

Just for clarity, the cling film bloke is the bloke his wife was having an affair with! Nothing to do with Noel. The misinformation which gets perpetuated is insane.

I hate that I had to read this.
Oh interesting. I was told that by someone who worked with him on a project. I also briefly worked with him and from my experience completely believed it so surprised to learn I had it wrong.

are you actually for real? he was NOT “essentially cleared”, do you know how hard it is for historical SA cases to go to court? the police believed they had enough evidence for a conviction but the CPS turned it down, which is very very common unfortunately. It does NOT mean someone is “cleared”.

Also could you explain to me what a PDF looks like then? because to me it isn’t just the creepy old man down the road, it could literally be anyone.
To be clear I don’t think you can tell by looking (except for Jimmy). I’m well aware that it’s those you least expect etc. my point, badly made, is that there is often a lot of smoke around serial offenders and you get a general gut feeling even if they are in the public eye and you never met the etc. Scott mills so far does not seem to have a pattern of behaviour. Perhaps that will change and I am not saying - whatever if was ages ago- I’m saying it is not black and white IMO in this case. There is simply not enough information. There is no criminal case and he didn’t work for theBBC at the time of the alleged misconduct.

being a twink or being called a twink is like saying cute or boy band wannabe something. It’s not always an insult, although it can be. It’s just a kind of look. Another kind is “bear” which is a big hairy guy.
And as I said, it's not related to age. You can be young looking but not twinky.

Jimmy Page of Led Zepplin dated 13 year old Lori, it’s documented, photographed and witnessed as fact. Lori has told a few different versions of losing her virginity to Bowie at 13 or 15, some versions are easily disproved.

Yet Bowie is always wheeled out as a “gotcha- he’s a pdf”.

The BBC have more info than what we have.

In any case I hope the alleged victim is okay and has a support network because some of the stuff being said about him is vile.

This FB group is horrible.

It’s giving PS vibes 😕

In the past hour I’ve heard radio 2 promo a show starring a man who pays for sex, play a song by a man who had relationships with underage girls and play an archive clip of a man whose wife left him due to his cling film fetish. I’m not saying they were wrong to sack SM because it does sound like it’s well deserved but I’d very much like the BBC to publish a values report to understand what they’re fine with.
That's the world we live in - or rather the men in it.

Should they never play Bowie or the Stones again? (I have no idea who the cling film fetish guy is 🤣)

Agree, usually the floodgates open & it's all gone quiet. And u have people on these threads that have heard rumours but there has been none of this.
There were two posters on the previous thread who said they weren’t surprised and knew he’d done bad things in the past.

But there is a massive difference is there not between the risk posed by someone that acted with one individual twenty five years ago and someone who was up until his discovery (and afterwards) actively pursuing multiple individuals?

Between someone found guilty in a court and sentenced, and someone who was not charged.

Between viewing dozens of images of child sex abuse including toddlers and someone whom from the facts we have MAY only have entered into a 'consensual' relationship with someone who was fifteen

People are reacting differently because these are very different offender profiles representing very different risks and because not to appreciate this is truly to be part of the mindless, braying, almost always hypocritical mob

People are reacting differently because these are two different things.
I mean differently to when the initial Huw Edward’s first broke, when it was one individual who was reportedly 17 and hadn’t gone to the police

Nobody is saying that’s okay if he did it. But it was investigated by the police and he wasn’t prosecuted. He’s not been convicted of anything but because the BBC had a knee jerk reaction, hysterics like you are pranding him a pweirdo over something that may well never have happened.

The BBC are going to haemorrhage staff over this. They’ve created a situation where any fixated person or nutter can make allegations against their staff and they’ll sack them and throw them to the pitchfork mob like you and ruin their loves, even if nobody is sure they actually did what’s alleged.
The couple of comments on him being a P not saying he isnt but atm the info out that doesn't imply that. They've just said Under16.

On your post I disagree, I think because of the risk of a lawsuit they would be very careful before sacking him.

If they moved Chris Hawkins over from 6Music (and gave his slot to Emily Pilbeam full time) then I might listen to it 😅.
