TV presenter allegations

Could we PLEASE have a thread that stays up?

Meaning don't name anyone, or any programme or ask for initials or hint.

I just would like to discuss how this is likely to unfold.

If its who I think it is, its shocking. He is an old man compared to the 17 year old girl who has substance misuse issues.

Vile behaviour.

Disgusting isn't it

Someone interviewed on this referred to a male not female?

Show quote history

Is that he's innocent or guilty? I only ask as I live nextdoor to number 64 and guess what my neighbour's name is?

OhComeOnFFS · 09/07/2023 17:44

For the love of god, will someone please DM me the name!!!

thanks for everyone’s comments on my post, surely MN should just delete this entire thread as speculation is against house rules. I hadn’t realised.

Ellmau · 09/07/2023 17:54

it's a news reader

But would anyone 'love watching' a newsreader on TV?

The coverage of the Coronation was quite entertaining I thought!

IClaudine · 09/07/2023 17:55

I think this thread will be pulled soon. Some people are not being as subtle as they think they are!

goodbyestranger · 09/07/2023 17:55

The name is spreading like wildfire but it would be very foolish for anyone to name him on her.

Cantlastsixweeksofthis · 09/07/2023 17:57

But would HE be considered a national treasure? 🤷🏻‍♀️

bellac11 · 09/07/2023 17:58

People are deliberately trying to get the thread pulled. Whats their motivation?

I haven't watched News at Ten in years so if I watched it tonight I wouldn't have a clue if anyone is missing. I might not even know people on it as I don't watch it so not sure if it would exactly rock my world.

Most of us don't know, even if we think we have an idea.

I do not watch the News at 10 either. I am not able here.

I did see the coverage of dear HMQ though.
I missed the coronation.

Iwasafool · 09/07/2023 18:03

I just googled and got the names of the Sunday presenters, never heard of one of them but I do recognise the other one. Can't imagine they are national treasures or household names. Not in my household anyway. Different presenters in the week apparently.

Just looked at the photos and the one I don't know is female.

EnfysPreseli · 09/07/2023 18:04

Some of you are in the know, so this may be way off the mark; but all the obfuscation over whether the young person concerned is male or female makes you wonder whether there's an additional layer to this. And that would be another reason why a teenager would be vulnerable and need money if the treatment they want isn't easily accessible on the NHS.

adriftabroad · 09/07/2023 18:06

Crikey, had not even considered that.

Ok so police "contacted" and Tim Davie at pains to emphasis how fast and decisive the corporation are being.

It still doesn't account for the fact that The Sun say the mother complained to the BBC in May and they took no action.

I wonder what the truth is.

Show quote history

They have literally explained that. They said fresh allegations of a “different nature” have come to light on Thursday. They have suspended due to these new and different accusations snd also contacted the met.

and as for the mother complaining in may, they won’t explain that, it’s a private matter, but there are any number of answers, from no evidence , his or her denial, the now woman purporting to be an adult on only fans and offering that service etc.
