What I find really disgusting about this is that it should have been immediately reported to the police in both the US and UK and investigated before any of this was released into the public domain. Why are we allowed to make judgements on national TV before both the alleged victims and the alleged perpetrator are able to get Justice/acquittal in a court of law. The allegations and RB's testimony need to be tested and scrutinised, instead the evidence has been dressed up in a dramatic way and mixed in with Russell's history and his own act, making it appear he talks about his own guilt openly. Many people will have already accepted guilt/or otherwise without all the facts.
I suspect now it will be difficult for all involved to have a proper hearing without both the jury and public being able to make up their minds before they set foot in the courtroom. This is not an acceptable way to carry out law. Channel 4/The Times hang your heads in shame, you have a responsibility to the victims the law and justice first and foremost, ratings must not be a consideration when people have suffered if Russell is guilty of these allegations.
