I'm not going in there again, @GiorgioArmageddi .

The person who asked me to get the drinks is really nice and his colleague is too. He couldn't go because he was too busy. He's a bit of a cheeky chappie but in a nice way.

Not a clue who it is.

May be so but he’s a bloody pervert. Isn’t he a vicar or priest’s son too?

A bishop, even!

That's what I was thinking. Surely if it was this serious the woman in question would have reported it? Why would you allow your employer to cover this up and let the man off the hook?

It makes me wonder if they were in a relationship. I can't imagine why she wouldn't have taken it further otherwise.

It's likely these are not big names, could be local radio/news non-entities, and the MOS is actually whipping up interest in the story by allowing us to think it involves household names. I can't imagine why they would choose not to name them otherwise, if they have all the evidence they need.

And all members of the clergy behave as upstanding pillars of the community and don't abuse their positions.

Not for one minute suggesting a parent if TW is a wrong un, but it's not unknown.

Knew it was something along those lines!

Quite.

Yep this.
He was shifted to the graveyard slot, as the article states. Then left the beeb.

He was married to a BBC presenter - an affair, they both left their spouses for each other - but they split in 2014, the year that this relates to.

That is the TW the Internet suspects.

That would fit with my theory that they were in a relationship, which is why she didn't go to the police.

I have no idea who you are talking about though. Was it local news or national?

Edited to say, don't worry found them both. And as I suspected, they are not household names. Hence why the MOS is choosing not to name them, They are going to get far more mileage out of this if people spend weeks speculating that it's somone we've all heard of.

Yes I have seen that in the past being done.

Looks like this TW is antisemitic too. Nice.

Apparently so !

(National news, not local)

in this case, even if they did I think you'd still be none the wiser.

”Yeah so happy and safe that one of the three gentlemen lamped some other poor underpaid person for not getting his dinner order right……”
According to the BBC’s own website it was an “unprovoked physical and verbal attack”
He also called the producer “lazy” and “Irish” and used a four letter expletive in the exchange.
Isn’t his now partner Irish.
😀
He did apologise afterwards.

Seriously? I very much doubt he’d want to get in to that kind of thing considering it would look really odd if he left out the whole period of time he was working with Christopher Eccleston….

"I just know" isn't a good enough reason to drag a man's name through the mud.

I know you think you're on the good side, but this kind of behaviour is quite chilling and can have catasrophic results for those at the receiving end of it.

Oh god its just a mumsnet thread

I reckon you're jimmy carr - who else is going around calling him a good man 😭

What was the issue with that? Did CE not like the way RTD ran the show (to put it broadly)?

Whatever.

Tony Wadsworth?

Tinky Winky

I could absolutely imagine a world in which the woman didn't report it - media careers are incredibly hard won, at the time reporting dodgy behaviour and bullying was a no-no. If she wasn't a household name - it could really jeopardise everything she had worked for or as some have said they were in a relationship. Potentially a mixture of both?

The Wombles?

Russell T Davies ran Doctor Who when John Barrowman was getting his penis out all over the place. He had a show where a 15 year old character featured in sex scenes. I’m not sure he’d have much of a leg to stand on.
