The Huw Edwards situation

[visibleman]

How can this presenter be taken seriously now most people know who they are?

Has the name been released or is it all just circumstantial?

It really isn't difficult to see one presenter is absent from presenting the news and that melt of women posted earlier let the name slip live on air.

Turning into another really big scandal for the BBC.

Really?

As has been said the BBC tried to contact the complainants multiple times without success, and apparently the BBC receives 250+ "serious" complaints every 6 months, note that's complaints and doesn't mean they're upheld or anything is found to have gone wrong, and that's for an organisation with 20k direct staff and probably many times that in "contract" staff who might well work for other companies but because they're involved in shows the BBC has commissioned they'll likely be the contact point for a complaint about that person a lot of the time.

I guess whoever it is, isn't a Tory ?

It’s all very odd, does look like the mother is wanting cash out of this rather than justice. The son seemingly has been able to engage a high profile solicitor from a mutinational law firm, seems to be doing alright for a crack cocaine addict.

Getting big jealousy vibes from her tbh.

What do you want them to do, send 100 emails and ring every day to a number that won't connect?

Like their licence enforcers you mean? Should have turned up on their doorstep!

Exactly, give them a break, there are a lot of nonces at the BBC so it cant be easy..

In the older days this person would have resigned immediately. The person isn't doing their own cause and mental health any good dragging it out.

In the olden days, your whole life wouldn't be completely destroyed over an, as yet, unfounded allegation.

I think there's been 3 in about 50 years? But OK.

Im not keeping count but it sure seems like more than that.. I'm including general sex offenders if you want to get technical..

Well you said nonces, which means paedophiles.

There's more MP's convicted than BBC presenters.

Son? I thought this was a daughter? TBH I'm not following this story as its just salacious gossip. I just scanned through the last few pages as I was a bit bored. I did just do a search on Twitter and it reminded me of what a **** hole that place can be, thankfully none of the people or organisations I follow throws that toxic side of twitter at me. The worst I see are loony Americans to do with politics.

We dont know if the 'victim' is male or female - seems to depend on how liberal (or not) you are as to your assumptions lol..
