It’s one thing for a victim to come out and name and shame, but for a seemingly reputable rag to come out and do it must mean they’ve seen some pretty damaging evidence 

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."

Read the article last night - 20 people coming out, and he doesn't deny most of it. Things like the sex scenes and the filming of a naked audition.

I think, in legal terms, he's fucked.

not quite, well, the opposite in fact, according to the article

Through his lawyers, Clarke categorically denied every allegation that the Guardian put to him, bar one, accepting he once made inappropriate comments about one woman, for which he later apologised, but denying the rest of her complaints. 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. They deny their client is a serial sexual predator.

his TV show been pulled from ITV now as well

"Actor Noel Clarke says he's deeply sorry for some of his actions and will seek professional help, but denies sexual misconduct"

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?

That's such a pr agency line. Wait for the, I was a sex addict article in 12 months time after a period of reflection and contrition.

I get that, groping seems very 70s, I dunno seems a bit odd.

The filming of naked auditions, well naked auditions, is just odd. Honestly, fire up the phone, have a wank and be normal. End of.

Seems John Barrowman has been waving his widgie about on set a lot too

"We have no plans to release this title at this time."

That's fine,  you're the BBC so can probably afford a few million pounds wasted production costs. 

It's an audio book. I'm not sure it's cost millions and it appears to be licensed to a production company.

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.

HW had one of his convictions overturned

not innocent, but having a re-trial, because they used witnesses who testified about things that were nothing to do with the trial

and he doesn't get out because he's still serving time for another charge

anyway, that sinister slag Ashley Judd was on the news and wasn't happy about it

She was very unhappy indeed.

All a bit technical really, and she ought to be able to understand it's a legal point and not this dark day that she portrayed it as.

It hasn't yet been confirmed whether there will be a re-trial though.

She is one repulsive cunt. I would have a good use for her on the 5th November.

Is silicone flammable?
