I don’t watch loose women, but saw the clips on fb so watched the whole segment

so then I googled it to see if others found her pov shocking, then saw she’s been suspended and being investigated by the bbc for bullying

anyway just wondering if you saw it and what you thought ?

I’ll see if I can find the clips to share on here

Agree with Denise. From that clip the others seemed to be struggling to reconcile the idea of the person they thought they knew and who they actually are. I get that to a degree e.g. disgraced actors or musicians who produced amazing work but can the art be separated from the artist after learning who they really are.

But I actually think it’s pretty clear that someone is a ‘baddie’ in cases like this. Even if 80% of the time they’re being ‘good’ it doesn’t negate the abhorrent 20%. 20% is enough to make them bad. The nature of the crime carries significant weight, it’s not like they’ve dodged a bus fare.

The only thing I agreed with is that it does seem very soon for the victims to make a dramatisation? Though I wonder if it could shine a spotlight back on the case? I had no idea he’d gotten away with a suspended sentence. The sentencing laws are all over the place.

Totally agree

Paedophile apologist
I read an article recently saying he was trying to reinvent himself and get back broadcasting. A bit of a bold move, I doubt anyone would touch him now

I seriously hope he doesn't ever go back into broadcasting

I happened to catch some of that and didn't know if I'd got the entire gist... As above, KA seemed to think that he was okay because he was friendly enough (or something). Denise was quite rightly outraged.
A paedophile is a paedophile and if they've acted on their urges - as Huw Edwards has done then sentencing should be custodial at a minimum.

I might have to rewatch as it did sound very paedophile apologist from Kaye Adams.

I saw the picture of Martin Clunes earlier on GMB I think... The likeness was uncanny. What a wonderful actor he is.

Steve Coogan must be busy

I don't watch Loose Women but watched the clip you posted...omg I can't believe their take on it! Denise the only one who seemed disgusted.

'Oh but if he's friendly to someone he sees at his local shop and waves to people on a bike ride then he's not ALL bad.'

Fuck right off.

Show quote history

Totally agree with you
