Gary Lineker, Rylan Clark and Jeremy Vine rule themselves out of being the latest BBC pervert

Has this thing taken over Wales-Bales life? ……

Who would have thought he was such a tabloid whore eh

[chrisp_1927]

Seems like each new accusation is more tenuous than those that have come before. Feel sorry for the police officers who have to waste their time on this, I'm sure there's plenty of far more worthy 'crimes' they would rather be investigating

Just heard SWP have been in contact with the MET.

Just heard SWP have been in contact with the MET.

I did wonder if they were going to say anything on the news last night, they referred to the “covid restrictions in England” I did wonder if they would mention Wales at all. I guess he lives in London anyway.

[J R Hartley]

I bet Phillip Schofield is glad of the break.

Who or where did you just hear it from ?

I can see this going nowhere.... the person in the pics - seems to indicate they dont want to take it any further. The parents I dont believe have the right to start a prosecution.
BBC guidelines may have been broken - but that isn't a criminal offence.

What I'm saying if there is no chance of a conviction and what happened wasnt illegal - then the BBC have a duty of care not to release a name. Thinking here of Cliff Richard, Paul Gambuccini, Tony Blackburn etc.

The BBC themselves have been shown to offer up fake texts as genuine - for them to subsequently realise they didnt check if they were fake or not - Panorama (that cost John Sweeney his job).

For once - I can understand the dilemma the bbc are in - albeit - it's a farce - as everyone knows who it is.

On the radio the Greatest hits station.

Leeds fans are going to love this one .

[Wales-Bales]

Has this thing taken over Wales-Bales life? ……

I'm just updating the latest developments as reported by the BBC and other media organisations, I'm not try to minimise what any anybody has done like some people are doing, or blaming one side for causing the problem. If Person X is a top person at the BBC who has the trust of the country, the reputational damage will be huge if there is any truth to any of these allegations.

[Wales-Bales]

Another one about him going for a cup of tea during covid restrictions.

I'd be pissed off if a person in a position of authority on the TV was telling me to follow the rules, while they themselves were breaking them, and that also goes for people like Johnson, Hancock & Ferguson, etc.

[jeepster]

Well i hope that shit hole of a newspaper is sued by Huw.
No criminal activite was found by the police.

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

He's been admitted to a psychiatric unit

If this is because of the stress and its proved in time he's innocent I hope the sun gets absolutely shafted

[A Quiet Monkfish]

Damn ! I was hoping for what probably would have been the most surreal moment ever on TV history - a newsreader presenting a news item of which he was singularly involved !

[Wash DC Blue]

No indication that a criminal case has been committed.

In her statement, Vicky Flind said her husband Huw Edwards was "suffering from serious mental health issues" and is now "receiving in-patient hospital care where he will stay for the foreseeable future" as she asked for privacy for her family.

[cyril evans awaydays]

Well i hope that shit hole of a newspaper is sued by Huw.
No criminal activite was found by the police.

Well, if it's not him who is "the latest BBC pervert"?

[The Bloop]

If this was an episode of Black Mirror, Huw would be presenting the news with the lead story being his wife reading the statement.

[2b2bdoo]

Can’t help but feel he’s been stitched up and now everyone’s trying to get the pretty penny. I hope he goes after The Sun.

Police say nothing to answer.

He didn’t make the rules.

[PontBlue]

Well i hope that shit hole of a newspaper is sued by Huw.
No criminal activite was found by the police.

I hope he sues the Sun and News UK out of existence.

[Dave Blue]

Glad the press, media and gossip mongers have seen a man admitted to hospital with a breakdown. They can now sneer at his character flaws and think how great they are not to have any. Who’s next week’s target going to be?

[Harry Paget Flashman]

I'd be pissed off if a person in a position of authority on the TV was telling me to follow the rules, while they themselves were breaking them, and that also goes for people like Johnson, Hancock & Ferguson, etc.

He was relaying the news not telling you what to do.

Don't shoot the messenger.

[Harry Paget Flashman]

Well, if it's not him who is "the latest BBC pervert"?

I still don't know what he's done that makes him a pervert.

[Wash DC Blue]

Hope that Jeremy Vine gets what’s coming to him as well.

[Maurice Swan]

So it is Huw Edwards then...,,,according to his wife....

[cyril evans awaydays]

I still don't know what he's done that makes him a pervert.

Well the OP who gave this thread its headline also said "I know more than I am letting on, but this could potentially be devastating for the BBC if it plays out in a certain way". So I guess he has the source material to spill the beans.
