Didn’t he say he’d take his own life if he didn’t get an injunction? No justice for the victims but one less to pay for in prison. BBC should hang their heads, awful bloody establishment that keeps covering up for these vile perverts.

Well, makes sense. Hopefully he won’t need it much longer - not where he’s going. He can share with his old mate Russell.

who’s next?!

But again there is no criminal proceedings, at this point. The only illegality is the kissing a fifteen year olds breast.

one fifteen year old girl is saying he asked for sexual images, he’s saying he didn’t.

it reminds me of Philip Schofield, grooming them to have sex when they are over the age of consent.

I think it is now more of a shock if a celebrity doesn't lead a sordid double-life. More of a surprise if a famous person turns out to be wholesome.

I’m not sure if we’re allowed to speculate on names, wouldn’t want MN getting into any legal tRouble if someone gives a Toss about what is posted here.

I’m curious about Ross now, two direct connections to sexual predators. Could just be a coincidence but I noticed he was also in the pic where DW has his arms around one of his young victims.

Yup...No need to ask what (or who) is next.

Yes, all of this, even if he did nothing directly himself, does not paint JR in a good light.

And "I didn't write it" is the flimsiest defence. He still blatantly understood why he was saying it.

Well, we don’t actually know much but abusing his position of power is illegal and apparently involved a 17 year old, which is definitely illegal.

But it’s not, 16 is the age of consent, don’t get me wrong he’s a sick sleazy fucker, but I don’t think it’s illegal.

Jonathan Ross loving it again. We had the Sachsgate humiliation, the vile comments lead by Ross over Lily Allen on a panel, and now introducing David Walliams:

Jonathan Ross, opened the show with a joke pointedly referencing him: “The comedy awards is 15 years old – 15 years old! And like most 15-year-olds, it’s drunk, it’s unpredictable and it’s probably going home with David Walliams.”

Ross, responding through lawyers, said he did not write the joke himself.

Oh, aren't you clever Jonathan ......

Oh but he did. He kept asking for more and told her how to pose. I’m happy these women kept the paper trail.

Show quote history

But if you read the article he’s saying he didn’t ask for anything sexual, and not nudity, it does appear the woman can’t prove he asked her to do that. I of course beleive her, I’m thinking more in terms of a court case,

Firesidechatter · 10/11/2026 13:05

Thing is I think it’s limited to kissing rhe fifteen year olds breast, I am genuinly not sure accepting images is a thing, more it’s soliciting, which it seems the woman has no evidence of,

he seems to have been very careful not to break the law. Apart from one incident.

Also is accepting images a thing though, it’s not like a physical thing, it’s digital, you don’t actually accept them, you just get them, and clearly he’s saying he didn’t ask for them.

Glad the cat is out of the bag, and if true, justice will be serviced.

Although thankfully we will not see him on the TV ever again - always made me feel uncomfortable.

His poor son - feel for him.

OP, why are you asking if you are unreasonable to think it could not have been David Walliams? Why do you think it couldn't have been him?

Firesidechatter · 10/11/2026 13:03

Sartre · 10/11/2026 12:57

He groomed two 15 year olds and had a sexual encounter with one at 15. She stopped before they had full sex but he “sucked her breast”. He also accepted sexual images from a 15 year old, knowing she was 15. So yes, he has broken the law.
