Channels NZ male accent 😄

Is it ten PM the Sunday article comes out?

I am stuck in bed and am the most full person going, I can't do much today due to an injury, just passing time. I am no ITV executive or journalist. This thread is so full of people projecting.

9/10pm it said on here earlier but I think the papers are discussed on programmes like sky news at 10pm so we’ll know for definite what the main stories are by then

PetuniaT · 27/05/2023 21:13

But who has he cheated on? His wife and kids, other blokes? He's as bad as his brother

RhinoMoveFast · 27/05/2023 21:15

That is so funny that people think that they are telling off Dan Wootton and that I am him.

Can't believe (well I can) all the fuss about this. Nor important AT ALL

Can't believe people on here are trying to minimise a story about a powerful TV presenter grooming a teenager. Have we learned nothing? It's actually sickening that people like this poster and others care so little about safeguarding and demonstrates exactly how groomers get away with it.

As others have said, his agent dropping him speaks volumes. The shit is going to hit the fan in the next few days.

Philip Schofield has really gone down the pan since he's come out of the closet hadn't he?
seems to be turning and being a b* with lovely Holly as well.
It's time he did us all a favour and left the scene once and for all .
Why on earth are they are keeping him on at breakfast tv I just don't know!
Maybe he's got " close" friends in the management that are protecting him who really knows? Fed of him.

I think you're a bit behind the times here. 🤔

riceuten · 27/05/2023 21:20

Why is this even news? Surprised they haven’t crowbarred his brother in - they usually do

GonnaGetGoingReturns · 27/05/2023 21:28

He’s a nasty scummy piece of work but Holly should go too.

I bet the runner will release his story soon. To be honest even though Eamonn etc were gunning for him to go all of them including ITV bosses were complicit in keeping Schofe safe, it’s only after his brother was convicted and the skeletons were being let of Schofe’s closet that they’re now distancing themselves or denying they knew anything was happening.

He’s groomed someone but both he and Holly according to a journo (just boring women’s magazine, nothing highbrow like Vogue!) friend of mine are utter nightmares and nasty to work with. Nothing wrong with the latter you might say, but if they then slip up, you’ll have no shortage of people willing to set them on their way.

What time do tomorrow's newspaper headlines come out? 10:30?

WhisperingAutistic · 27/05/2023 22:10

No Daily Mail yet? Or am I missing it?

dapsnotplimsolls · 27/05/2023 22:11

No DM yet ... interesting.

WhisperingAutistic · 27/05/2023 22:11

I haven't rtft so sorry if its already been shared, but I found this tweet and the comments/quote tweets disturbing.
Looks like Phil has added quite a few teens on twitter over the years.

Well if the rumours about underage grooming are to be believed it’s not that straight forward. No wonder Holly was distancing herself.

But no one knows if that’s true, people just love a good witch hunt because their own lives are too boring. Why don’t people just wait for all of the facts before thinking they know everything and trying to make a stranger’s life hell.

clearly no one learnt anything from what happened to Caroline flack

Leela100 · 27/05/2023 22:23

CMon, we all k ow it’s not going to be as clear cut as he is making it out to be, if it was why has it taken so long to “come out” (for want of a better term 🤣) you can’t tell me he met someone he “liked” when he was 12 and waited till he was 18 to do anything about it

And of course Holly knew she was his bestie she’s only trying to save her own neck now by saying she got lied to

What are we supposed to learn from Caroline Flack?

She was 31 when she dated 17 year old Harry Styles

She was arrested and charged with domestic violence causing injury.

In Feb the prosecutors told her they were going ahead with the assault charges despite her boyfriend's request to drop the charges. She killed herself the next day. She had a history of suicide attemps dating back many years. .

@Soothingaftersun whats the David Williams thing?

EsmaCannonball · 27/05/2023 22:27

When this story first broke on social media two or three years ago people were saying it was just internet gossip and speculation and nobody had all the facts. Well, it turned out to be true. How many more facts do people want? First of all people say something didn't happen and then they say that it did happen but it wasn't that bad. There's a lot of minimising going on.

These posts are all bizarre. I get people want Philip to be the worst ever but you are all wanting this actual young man to have been abused as a child in order to make Philip look as bad as possible. Insisting he must have been abused when he was young is a strange thing to want to have happened to fit your own narrative about Philip.

To be fair she dated a child who was only just legal, so, not the best example.

Stop dragging Caroline into this

Sunday story just been published

EsmaCannonball · 27/05/2023 22:35

Well, what we can definitely say Schofield did was groom a child in preparation to enter into a sexual relationship as an adult. He's a groomer at the very least.
