Police have arrested a 72 year old man as part of the Yewtree investigation. My mate in the news dept has given me a name that's doing the rounds....*jaw drops*


("jaw drops" is not meant to be any sort of clue by the way, it was just my reaction at what was said)

Looks like another McAlpine moment.

Now that would be breaking news but way off the mark. I think its good a persons name is not be released until charged. He lives in a homeless shelter hence how the mighty have fallen and Radio One are doing well. I will say no more nudge nudge...but how could they think Cliff Richard :shocked:

That took some time for his name to hit the headlines, mind you it took ages for the page to come-up there must be lots of people viewing the page. Good find

Still not on Sky News But Bill Roache is.....

BBC broadcaster Stuart Hall has been sentenced to 15 months in jail for sexually abusing girls.
Hall, 83, of Wilmslow, Cheshire, admitted 14 offences that occurred between 1967 and 1985.
would have thought a bigger sentence was in order myself but the judges hands are tied with sentencing guidlines

Quote:

The judge said for most of Hall's offences the maximum sentence at the time they were committed was two years, but the remainder carried a potential term of five years.
He added: "The maximum sentence for this type of offence has been significantly increased, since these offences were committed, to 10 years."
The attorney general's office said it had already had a "small number" of requests to review the sentence to determine if it was "unduly lenient".

His barrister Crispin Aylett, in mitigation, told the court the former broadcaster had "all of 13" victims compared to Jimmy Savile's 1,300.
comes to something when abusing 13 kids can be used as mitigation because it was not as large a victim count as Savilles

Should have heard the language I used when I heard the sentence. Not good enough, I think someone said it was something like either 2 weeks or 2 months per victim. Apparently the Attorney General is going to ask for a review of the sentence, which I hope happens. Just because he admitted it shouldn't mean he gets a light sentence. Up to me, I'd give him the maximum for each offence and make him serve them consecutively, so he rots in jail.

I hope some con gets to him.
