YABU to watch a documentary on C5 😂

I can't believe I didn't see that. That's in very poor taste.
That Carol Malone also disgusted me at the start of the programme going
on about him being a scrounger. That's not the issue. That's not his crime. Would it not have been so bad had he been a middle class banker.
She seems to have more contempt for him scrounging than she does him killing his children.

They focused a lot on him, but the mother - I mean he's a psychopath obviously but she was their mother, gave birth to them. The reaction of her is just a sickening as him.

I once saw a baileys advert opposite an article about a woman who had been raped after having her baileys spiked. I can only assume it was some kind of computer selection...

She (the mum) comes across as very i academic and possibly gas lighted and abused by him (from what I have read - haven't watched the documentary).

Op, yes DH and I rather aghast at that, really innappropriate ad! The letters he has written from prison compound my belief he is a despicable vile man.

Channel 5 in poor taste? Surely not!

That's Carole Malone all over.

Well he was a scrounger.....he did it to get the mistress to come back because he wanted the benefit money the 5 kids brought him that's what it was all about

Getting back the tax credits and child benefit those extra 5 kids with her brought in
