I wasn't. I believed Adam Deacon when he said that he was bullied by him.

Several new allegations in the Graun - a detailed report.

Very, very glad for The Graun. (Phew though….they could ill afford to lose.)
I’ve many a bone to pick with (editor) Katherine Viner these days, but it’s still my paper, and you’d hate to see a lifelong friend trampled by some scrote’s mere fame and ££.
When they put on their Righteous Crusade gear at Grauniad Towers, it’s a very inspiring sight.

Have had the misfortune to work with him, found him to be a very unpleasant person.

🥺

Do share if you feel comfortable

The thing is, women put up with a lot in that industry (far too much), so it must have been so bad for them to get to this stage

A very stupid own goal, but couldn't happen to a more deserving male.

Yep. All his women characters are weak, pathetic or just mute and naked.

He really is a wrong 'un.

Omg i watched this film called 'brotherhood' (iirc)

He cheated on his wife with a 'slag', and then cried a bit to her and she took him back - zero questioning or anger at him 😄😄😄

I remember judging him then

No. I always had an uneasy feeling about him.

The female characters in his films are always 'slags,' druggies, purely there to get naked, money crazed or total doormats with no decent lines or character progression.

If that's how he writes women I imagined that's how he must think about them.

Not at all. How likely is it that, I think, 20 women would independently and separately put themselves through testifying in court if it wasn't true?
His claims that it was a conspiracy by a 'powerful media outlet' are laughable.
