Site Supporter MickyD Posted April 30, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted April 30, 2021 Sufficient evidence to change BAFTA from "We hear you but you can't complain anonymously." to "Right, kick him out and strip him of any awards we've presented to him."

Things like the sex scenes and the filming of a naked audition. I think, in legal terms, he's fucked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a 29-page letter, his lawyers said he categorically denies all of the other allegations, from all 20 women, in some cases questioning their credibility.

Youri McAnespie Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 How do you go about groping? I wouldn't even know where to begin. Well I would but... Even if I was inclined that way I think I wouldn't be able to do it without trying to 'comedy' it up, perhaps pulling a 'Sid James' type face - y'know, like scrunch one's lips up under one's nose? Also it's the type of thing you'd expect of your Weinsteins. Why's Clarke doing it? Is it a power thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait for the, I was a sex addict article in 12 months time after a period of reflection and contrition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The filming of naked auditions, well naked auditions, is just odd. Honestly, fire up the phone, have a wank and be normal. End of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fine, you're the BBC so can probably afford a few million pounds wasted production costs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not in Crawley Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 It's an audio book. I'm not sure it's cost millions and it appears to be licensed to a production company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You actually took the preceding words away: A Big Finish spokesperson said: "We have no plans to publish this title at this time. Its not the BBC thats not releasing it, its the independant production company. And I'm sure the costs of an audio only episode are in the (tens of) thousands rather than the millions.
