More than a little creepy :

Some more scandal for the BBC as someone has come forward and said they saw Rod Hull fisting a young bird.

It's your typical witch hunt, with people wanting to believe any salacious story.

As for Jimmy Saville being 'too powerful' to get an allegation of paedophilia made against him; do people really have such short memories? When GG got vilified in the press, they would have happily printed ANY allegation, about anyone, if there had been any evidence at all. It's the UK press we are talking about here. You know, the lot that got paediatricians houses attacked? They ran with "Prince Charles got a handjob from his butler" - do you think they would have done anything other than laugh at the 'power' of Jimmy Saville?

Nope, its only turned up now because you can't libel the dead - and they can't sue you for unsubstantiated allegations.
Good post and spot on.
Trial by Media assumes guilt before innocence.
I seem to recall that someone in the Royal family also got some media time for some sort "assistance" from a male servant. Can't recall who..Edward perhaps?

I think the evidence is overwhelming enough to dig him up and hang him, don't you?

Hang him, no we need to do a full William Wallace on the dirty ...... but only after real evidence has been heard by a court. But I take your point

Where will it end? Mind you his lawyer has issued a statement so it will be interesting to see if either party pursue this to litigation or criminal proceedings.

He could well be innocent, not making any assumptions. It's just unfortunate for him, having tried to bring an injunction and failed he then denies seeing the girl or ever being at the Beeb and then proof is found.

In one innocent way this is all very sad.... Feels like the bounderies for eccentricity, a fantastic British trait, have narrowed considerably.

I see no reason why people can't be eccentric without being sleazy, abusive, or even without committing apparent rape.
