― computers are the new "cool tool" (James Morrison), Friday, 12 October 2012 00:13 (thirteen years ago)
Dear Jan Moir, have you not fucked off yet, you snivelling excuse for a human being?
P.S. it is easy to understand why those whowere molested by Savile are now comingforward to speak out. One understands howthe domino effect of others gives courage,how there is comfort in a crowd.I have less sympathy with celebrities such asSandi Toksvig and Liz Kershaw, now loudlyclaiming long-ago molestations and abuse atthe BBC. Hardly shrinking violets, they didnothing about it at the time and still do notname their tormentors. What’s the point?
― ailsa, Friday, 12 October 2012 15:26 (thirteen years ago)
I thought they *did* do something at the time...

It's Jan Moir - she'll have no truck with your 'facts' and 'reading comprehension' and such.

did a few stories on this and my boss had a word after one and joked about me picking the pic that made him look most like a stereotypical paedo. had to explain that every single pic of him looks like this.

Yeah when I clicked on this thread I assumed it was a comedian dressed as some sort of bizarre character but then I realized that was just the way he really looked.

i wonder if it's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Adamson who played Len Fairclough on coronation street? It's the right era and I don't know if there were any other UK soaps at that time.

I got the impression from that article it wasn't an established soap star but a tv star who appeared in one. Suggesting a short stint or perhaps even a cameo.
― Algerian Goalkeeper, Friday, 12 October 2012 21:59 (thirteen years ago)
i can think of one huge star from the mid 70s saville/glitter who went on to appear in eastenders
singer he was

if this spreads from the BBC to pop/rock stars of the 70s for underage sex there's gonna be noone left with a reputation.
― Algerian Goalkeeper, Friday, 12 October 2012 22:03 (thirteen years ago)
All the soaps have had famous 70s tv stars or pop stars in them. Almost all of them will be libelled until the truth comes out.

cos i must have missed his big hits in the 70s
― Professor Giff (NickB), Friday, 12 October 2012 22:19 (thirteen years ago)
I would say he's talking about The Man With The Glove.

All the soaps have had famous 70s tv stars or pop stars in them
Read that as 'soap stars have had' and was all, "Well, yes."
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 12 October 2012 22:33 (thirteen years ago)
oh right! was thinking of someone else, didn't know that glove guy had been in soaps until now, eeek
― Professor Giff (NickB), Friday, 12 October 2012 22:39 (thirteen years ago)
I actually used to live 5 doors along in the same street as Mr Glove and his Glamorous Soap Star Wife, and I never saw any noncing going on. I did see some pretty shocking syrup action going on, mind.

it's not Dav1d £ssEx ffs. they would not describe him as a soap star. plus it would really taint my regular listenings to "rock on", so, NO.
― jed_, Friday, 12 October 2012 23:06 (thirteen years ago)
actually they don't describe him as a soap star so it's possible. but i hope it's not him.

There's another glove, and twitter searches are a bit creepy:
***** ******** came to my kids school for the gold awards, disappointed he wasn't wearing his leather glove!
― stet, Friday, 12 October 2012 23:11 (thirteen years ago)
Now they're saying Jeremy Beadle may have had a small hand in it.
― ~ (Matt #2), Friday, 12 October 2012 23:13 (thirteen years ago)
xp Ha! That's the glove i assumed people were talking about. Not that there have ever been rumours about him, iirc.

Dear Jesus,
Please please please please fix it for me for Noel Edmonds to be outed as a nonce.

(ftr I think it's incredibly unlikely - out of all the DJs on that 1977 Radio Times cover, Edmonds is the least nonce-like. A huge womanising creep, yes, but not a pedo.)

If it was Peter Adamson they would just publish his name since he was dead
― Algerian Goalkeeper, Saturday, 13 October 2012 08:35 (thirteen years ago)
They might want more than one source for the stories, though, even with a dead star like Adamson or TV-comedian-turned-soap-actor-and-close-friend-of-Freddie-Starr Mike Read.
― Go Narine, Go! (ShariVari), Saturday, 13 October 2012 10:17 (thirteen years ago)
Reid. Not Mike Read, obviously.
