Thinking about how, if Merlin (the series) aired today, the actress who played Guinevere would have faced a lot of racist backlash. Times used to be easier, mehn.

My issue with David Walliams is that he threatened suicide. Like the same way an abusive boyfriend does when you say you’re leaving and it speaks to his guilt in my opinion. Weird that ITV did the deep dive even though they’re the ones who employed him.

Tell me, why have you included two gay men who have no actual allegations against them beyond dating much younger, but still decidedly adult men, rather than any straight men who have, in fact, preyed on teenagers? Nooooot a great look.

If David Walliams was innocent he wouldn’t have tried to keep his name out of the press legally.

Everytime a celebrity gets caught being creepy to 14-18 year old girls there's an outpour of men being like 'so what?? We all do it!!' and it's like yeah, we know you do

Baffles me to see how many people think it's easy to get somebody convicted for rape just by making it up. You can barely get them done for actually raping you.

Hot take: A character doesn't have to be morally perfect to be worthy of love, understanding or appreciation.

Rape.
What's the real reason why Russell Brand was convicted??
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Russell Brand was convicted by a jury of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault against four women between 2004 and 2009. He was sentenced to 10 years and 6 months in prison. theguardian.com/uk-news/live/2… cnn.com/2026/11/09/ent… independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/…

The Series 4 DOCTOR WHO (2008) opening is peak Murray Gold. Those huge orchestral hits, the increasingly frantic strings and the TARDIS hurtling through that chaotic vortex make the whole thing feel like a full-blown cosmic event.
Which TV show has an intro so good you never skip it, no matter how many times you’ve watched it?

'Whatever women wear, wherever they go, indeed whatever they drink, they retain the right to say no' says Judge Bennathan in the sentencing of Russell Brand. Even though this should be common sense, it feels so moving to hear it said today

Personal opinion: shops doing 2 minutes silence is performative nonsense. If Remembrance Sunday has meaning for you, you're going to be at a service or parade or quietly commemorating somewhere. Not loading up your basket with M&S snacks.
