BBC presenter Huw Edwards suspended over paying for sexual pics.

[ouirdeaux]

There should be a guilty like emoticon.

 

[Magnus McGinty]

If those involved were aged 18 & above, then i don’t know why you’re wringing your hands tbh.

I’m not. I couldn’t care less. But my views aren’t why said presenter is currently facing extreme anxiety from the reactions of a mostly socially conservative society.
Strange that you conflate facts with my personal opinions.

 

[Raheem]

Whether it's socially acceptable or not depends a lot on what it is you are speculating happened.

Fuck conservative society. Get off that bus mate!

 

[cupid_stunt]

Astonished you had lost your virginity?

That's out of order.

I am sending you the bill for cleaning up the lager, I've just splattered over my keyboard!

There’s lots to do with power in this though. I’m sure if someone expressed disgust at wealthy middle aged westerners pulling teenage lasses in Cuba or Cambodia you may be inclined to agree. Or certainly not kick off like you are here. I can only speculate why you’d see a difference with this.

hmm so how long before this thread leads to someone getting banned

Keep on speculating.

Who is it? Who?

Until someone feels the needs to post a selfie of themselves on the sofa in their boxers?

 

[two sheds]

Who is it? Who?

We can't say. We can't.

 

[weltweit]

A couple of times I have thought I knew who it was ..

But now I realise that I just don't know ..

It will come out in time, I can wait

 

[domestos]

Who at Auntie Beeb would do such a thing.

 

[domestos]

I suspect the Krankies

You're bluffing surely? Why? Everyone from here to Patagonia knows who it is.

I don't believe you.

I haven’t got the foggiest idea.

Being put under undue pressure to meet, and getting a load of shit for saying no / not yet is really common for online dating; I’ve had it a few times. It doesn’t bother me but I can definitely see that if I was in my late teens or early 20s I think I could feel intimidated etc. It could just be someone cashing in on the drama of course, but we don’t know the content of the messages so to just go ‘but this is normal for online dating’ seems pretty absurd to me.

Nah. 3.5k ontop of previous sums...Younger person's statement to Beeb said they never met....and Idoubt she ever had intention of doing so.. And I also doubt Mr presenter hadn't grasped that by then either

I don’t. I haven’t been on Twitter though or even Google to find out.

A killer revelation in Urban's favourite tabloid tonight:

"The star’s web date said: 'He came round for an hour. I was quite shocked that he broke the [lockdown] rules to come and meet me because of who he is. I was just a random person online. We just chatted. He was obsessed with me making him a cup of tea.'"

That most English of perversions.. most unexpected.

I don’t know. And since “everybody” named a number of famous people who have been confirmed by the BBC to have been falsely accused, I wouldn’t put much faith in what “everyone” says they “know”.

(I’m also not on Twitter or Facebook or Instagram or TikTok or Threads).

A young person has told BBC News they felt threatened by the BBC presenter at the centre of a row over payment for sexually explicit photos.
The individual in their early 20s was first contacted anonymously by the male presenter on a dating app.
They say they were put under pressure to meet up but never did...

I choose my words carefully.

On top of everything else, as cupid_stunt says, the BBC themselves kind of gave it away today. I don't do twitter etc either.

Name I keep coming across doesn't appear to have any coverage with regards denials nor false allagation

I saw Cupid say that too, but I read what he quoted and it didn't give it away to me. And I'm not too proud to admit I'm curious.

i honestly don't ave a clue who it is. I couldn't even hazard a guess if pushed by bribes or threats.

OK, that narrows it down to everyone else in the world.

Just compare today's statement from the BBC, to the schedule on the BBC iPlayer for last Thursday, and spot who went AWOL that night and since.
