I didn't think that any of the suspects were deformed

That is funny.

I'm fairly sure that Mr 100% would not be interested in pictures of young girls.

I thought Hrolf (though not necessarily correctly) that the money had been paid to a lad?

If so Mr 100%, was the first name that sprung to my mind.

If that was the case...

Here's a thought for you, 20-30 years ago the bbc was the paragon of virtue, unbiased reporting & the envy of the world for content. Now, just remember that your license fee money is paying these peoples wages. Does that sit well with everyone?

'Mega-rare lump of whale vomit worth £400,000 washes up on beach in Canary Islands'.

Listen, we wouldn't know about these things without the BBC.

Lanzo would have told us but didn't deem it HOL-y enough.

He must be talking about Hookes Law of deformatiion. I cannot think how it would apply in these circumstances as it’s about elasticity but you never know - there may be an angle but it would be a stretch.

However a bit of breaking news is suggesting the mothers story is cobblers.
More to bash the BBC with potentially. Hurrah!

If any BBC presenters (past or present e.g.: Katy Hill) are reading this and want to pay me twenty five quid for a gawp at my bits and pieces then please write to me at the usual P.O.Box address.

Discretion assured, reciprocation optional.

I don’t think it is true. What I heard one of their lawyers say this morning is that they, along with everyone, must be aware of the law of deformation so whilst allegations remain unproven and investigations are continuing they must be careful not to reveal the identity of the person concerned. I suspect that is exactly the same reason the Sun hasn’t named him and the fact they haven’t must raise doubts about their confidence in the story. Time alone will tell. In the meantime the BBC bashers will enjoy some free hits.

That's my favourite misspell for a while. I'll let you find it.

It sounds really painful.

Not a law you'd want to break.

No need. It's obvious and, I suspect, the result of an autocorrect on the device I was using. The meaning was clear enough though and seems to have been confirmed by the news this evening. I hear several BBC presenters are considering suing a variety of people on Twitter for defamation, so perhaps the caution by the BBC is understandable.


 


For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

But why the BBC and why public money? Defamation is about reputation of people. Whoever is that presenter would have right of action not the BBC.

And yet,....a lawyer appointed by a young drug-addict 'victim', warns against naming the alleged culprit and rubbishes the story.

By my thinking, someone is anxious to protect their career and has spent money on a lawyer ,...and perhaps the victim needed some wonga,..and everything goes a lot quieter.
The parents stand by the story,...but let's see if some more money changes hands and the story changes yet again.

The truth will come out eventually. You can't just keep paying off victims.

The BBC has stated that the original request was stop the presenter from giving their son money

Then suddenly the complaint became that the money was given due to (illegal) lewd photos. Nearly two months after the first request.

The BBC also said that they could not get hold of the parents or the child to check the facts after the first request.

I guess we can all take a view on this.

It is interesting how much bandwagon jumping has gone on, certain members of the Government may not look too clever if the BBC substantiates its comments. I wonder why any Conservative minister might want to discredit and scare our national independent medium.

 

Teddy Eagle Flag 10 Jul 23 8.58pm

Maybe there was more to the story but doesn't this seem a lot to pay for some pictures?
And how did these payments take place? A 17 year old paying £35,000 into a bank account would be a bit tricky.
