PostPosted: 14:34 - 31 Oct 2013    Post subject: More Famous People Arrested Reply with quote

In their quest to besmirch and sully as many household names as possible, police officers have made more arrests.
As the police now have to be exercise great caution with regard to accepting bribes from journalists, the names of the people arrested remain unknown. This has, inevitably, lead to wild speculation as to the identities of the people arrested. The only detail released about one of the men is that he is a 64 year old, well known TV and radio presenter. I can't for the life of me imagine who they might be referring to.
As an aside, I wonder what the police achieved by carrying out one of these arrests at 5 o'clock in the morning, other than ensuring that everybody involved ended up having a late breakfast? Surely they could have simply phoned the man and come so some sort of deal.

The presumption of innocence is part of the right to a fair trial. I think it's fairly obvious that publicising suspects in national media damages that somewhat.

Doubt it... He lives in Essex and is a Channel 4 presenter now. There's quite a few other possibilities, I know who I'm hoping for but I'll not add to the speculation as I thoroughly disagree with the idea of naming people before conviction.

Are they named in the thus-far highly accurate BCF "Celebrity Nonce Guess Who?" thread?

Neither of them are the right age, unfortunately. I thought it may have been the irritating Irish tosser.


Paul Gambaccini's the right age.

He was held at his home in south London on Tuesday morning and answered questions in police custody before being released on bail.

His first wife was 15 and he later admitted to another relationship with a girl of 15...

Yeah I remember a while ago Julie Burchill giving him shit for this in a gruniard column.

Man, Home Truths was fucking horrible. But - as a pretentious muso - imo he played some ace stuff.
