Never liked the man but hope this is not a witch hunt.

If you stick your willy in enough people and brag about it, one of them is sure to accuse you of rape eventually.

Oops, that link is not working.....

He makes me cringe but I would not have put money on him being capable of aggressive behaviour.  He's too wimpy.  

[naomi24]

Can't stand the man.  Apart from that, he always looks like he needs a good bath.  That aside, if there's any truth in the allegations I question why people leave it so long to complain.

[Bobbisox1]

Dislike him intensely,never forget the stunt he played on Andrew Sachs

5 women but 4 of them want to remain anonymous.

It's not that I question, naomi...it is why the sudden interest in Brand from the media?

 

 

[ladybirder]

What was that Bobbi please?  I know he did it but I can't remember exactly what it was.

maggiebee - you left the dot at the end

I've never liked him, always thought him a nasty piece of work behind that facade.  As Naomi said, why does it take a special investigation for people to speak up if the allegations are true?

[naomi24]

Why do you think there's a sudden interest, Roy?

[Bobbisox1]

This LB

 

// In a prerecorded episode of The Russell Brand Show broadcast on BBC Radio 2 on Saturday 18 October 2008, comedian Russell Brand and presenter Jonathan Ross made prank calls to actor Andrew Sachs that created controversy in the United Kingdom. Brand and Ross called Sachs to interview him on air; when he did not answer, they left lewd messages on his answering machine, including comments about Brand's relationship with Sachs' granddaughter Georgina Baillie.///

[maggiebee]

Thanks LIK, didn't realise it wouldn't work with the dot. Every day's a school day.

[ladybirder]

Thank you Bobbi.  Whatever would possess someone to do that beats me.

[naomi24]

What those two idiots did to Andrew Sachs was horrible.  

[barry1010]

I have never liked the man and rape and sexual assault is not limited to  big, brutish men.  In recent weeks a schoolboy has been found guilty of raping a woman.

I don't think it odd that some victims never report rape, or leave it for years before doing so.  The trauma of the rape can be more than enough to cope with.  If there is an imbalance of status, it can make it more difficult.  There are many reasons why the offence is reported years later.

If the women are being truthful, I hope they get justice.  

[naomi24]

Why do they always all turn up at the same time though, Barry?  These allegations go back nearly 20 years.  Do they all know each other? 
 

[royfromaus]

Well, links are not working for me.

But this is a link (that doesn't work) to the kind of stuff Brand has been putting out for the last coyple of years.

It seemed the media were not bothered about his antics until he started railing against them and certain very high profile people.

the guy was a player, and women loved him for some odd reasons was said, he was loud and comfortable with his notoriety, and some women found that so cool, bed him as iv heard?, as for rape accusations, i doubt it, it's a money grab, late in the day to say it, plus there's nothing to him pysically..im an older gent and for a fact, he a skinny weakling to me.
