They're still deciding on a pantomime. A lot of the old lags are hoping to get Alladin.

The prior internet allegations are clearly a different matter to the one the search today was about, since this one is apparently about Billy Graham and the other was something else. I would go into the something else in more detail but I don't think todays police activity is enough to make that possible just yet.

all too soon rolf harris's question "can you see what it is yet?" will be answered

And according to Radio 4 (again) the police had informed the press in advance, so there were plenty of reporters there to witness the raid.

I wonder why.

Yep. Either kite-flying or see-what-we-did-nothing-to-see. Take your pick.

Two years ago, the Leveson Inquiry concluded that police operations involving the media should be "controlled more tightly" to avoid the "perception of favouritism" and the "risk of violating the private rights of individuals".

Since then, tip offs have dried to a trickle despite a series of high profile arrests. The media presence at Sir Cliff Richard's home, therefore, was highly unusual - it appears to be a deliberate attempt by police to ensure maximum coverage.

That's not illegal - but there are strict guidelines - and the force may have to justify its approach in the months to come.

Can easily guess the main justification but too tired at the moment to figure out if there is a reason not to speculate about that.

Or:

... though letting it be known, in a libel-proof fashion, that there is an investigation, in order to prompt others to come forward...

"because they can"

That's what I meant by kite-flying.

Whatever the reality and whatever happens next, some album covers may never seem quite the same again.
