The Huw Edwards situation

[Participant]

Not sure if there's already a thread on this, or if it's not allowed, or whatever, but it seems there's another 'star' under investigation for being depraved.

People are being accused (and denying it's them) left right and centre.

BBC presenter faces new allegations over explicit photos

The presenter was pictured in his underwear "ready for my child to perform for him", their mother told the Sun.

I predicted that Andi Peters would be outed as a nonce at some point, but this particular instance is to do with a girl, so that chalks him off.

NO NAMES.

If names are mentioned it can prove a legal issue for OCUK (and you as the poster). Anyone who mentions names will find themselves having their post deleted and a thread ban issued.
The risk is small, but it is there.

Not sure that word is acceptable TBH

Probably not wise to name someone with absolutely zero foundation either?

Which word? Nonce?

I've predicted that he could be, not named him as someone that is or has been.

I know what it means.

Yes.
And what you have done is defamation.

Nonce is allowed on this forum (as in the word, not FnG Magnolia) is the point.

Defamation is "a false statement presented as a fact" - I've not presented it as a fact so no, it's not defamation.

He's being a top tier melt. Maybe he's Andy Peters? Or the secret bbc creep?

Well, this latest degradation did in part inform my decision to drop the license yesterday. To be clear the primary reason was content, or lack thereof and that I simply do not watch live TV anymore.

 

[Stumble Bum]

Is there a reason this individual has still not been named yet. Quite the witchunt on social media at the moment. A lot of bbc presenters having to come out and say it's 'not me'.

We do end up in a weird situation with our varying age of consent/adulthood rules.

It's being reported the girl was 17 (when payments started anyway) and if that's the case and nothing happened earlier then we are in a position that they could have probably legally had sex with the person, but having a naked picture of them is child pornography.

 

[Stu999]

It's a weird story, the coverage including the BBC coverage, is emphasising about it being a teenage girl but the guy was the same age.

So realistically, the story is about a guy paying for racy pictures? Something millions of people do.

I'm not sure of the extent to which any co-ercion was involved. In which case it is obviously wrong. I think the parents said the girl used the money for drugs IIRC.

Careful guys, this thread is already borderline.

Assuming the gist of this story is true, it begs the question of "what level of idiot do you have to be to do this and expect to get away with it". Any high profile presenter or celeb has a target painted on their back.

Why don't you lot change the narrative and keep it on topic before this thread gets locked?

The implication is that the presenter is the same age as the presenter. They might have broken BBC rules but maybe not the law.

The photos are a huge grey area if the two individuals were the same age.

Weirdly the one person I've seen it strongly hinted as being is an older gentleman. We talking historic stuff here again?

 

[newbiejim]

Where is it that says it is a girl.

 

[ColdAsIce]

It’s not being reporting anywhere that it’s a girl, plus a quote in the daily mail saying “get your bits out” would suggest otherwise.

Seems the frequency of these scandals is picking up pace, suppose its only fair that the BBC take this turn as the last one was itv

Edit: Ooof, just had another read of the bbc article and "It is unclear how old the young person was at the time, but the paper has claimed they were 17 when payments from the presenter started." yeah, thats going to be some illegal piccies isn't it.
