For those of us that are old enough to remember him on R1 – who’d of thunk it 😐

he was on my ‘who will be next’ list

Well, John Peel got a 15 year old girl pregnant…

Shame, I liked his radio show

There must me many many “celebs” and rock stars running for cover & hoping for the best

They arrest everyone they fancy a chat with these days for some reason

he was on my ‘who will be next’ list

Mine too. Along with all of Shawaddywaddy and Basil Brush.

I had Freddie Starr on mine too. Yay!

Does seem to be turning into a bit of a “Radio 1 DJ” party, doesn’t it.

Was on the news earlier, seems it’s a couple of claims which DLT denies, gonna be difficult to prove either way I guess.

Roland Rat always looked a little dodgy….

…”Radio 1 DJ” party…

I can’t imagine they’ll be dragging Jimmy Young in for a grilling anytime soon.

Well, John Peel got a 15 year old girl pregnant…

was wondering about this the other day when the ‘john peel lectures’ were on.

is there any chance of anyone looking in to him, or is he too saintly for anyone to touch? not long ago sirjimmy was untouchable, and it sounds as though john peel implicated himself in his autobiography (so I hear)

Dave

I heard DLT changed his name to LTO.

I once saw Gordon The Gofer playing with himself on a train to Liverpool.

“Quack Quack Ooops”

Is the expression, I think?

😀

John Peel’s dead, so they can’t arrest him.

I be they are waiting outside every 70s & 80s DJ’s house.. in hope they can name the “unnamed” men before the police do.
Simon Bates’ house, earlier

Andy Kershaw’s house, earlier

Peter Powell’s house, earlier

Janice Long’s house.. etc

His jingle was a give away….

“Dave Lee Travis, hairy monster hahaha, run and tell your mommy”

Anyone got a sweepstake going?

noel edmonds and cheggers? a whole new meaning to saturday swap shop… who’s running the book?

2 worried men?

Children in Need takes on a whole different context this year….

It seems that almost anyone who can misbehave, has been…
African dictators
MPs
Bankers
Businessmen
Footballers
Pro cyclists
Drivers
RLJers
Radio One DJs

African dictators

‘Banana on sodomoy charge’ is possibly my favourite headline of all time.

Hold on – where have they mentioned children, what i read mentioned 17yr olds.

There is no suggestion that any allegations of paedophilia have been made against Mr Travis, but two women have come forward in recent weeks claiming he groped them during the 1970s and 1980s.

Carbon, such trivialities don’t matter. It’s on teh interwebz….

I take it Jazz Hands is now accepted to be full on sexual assault?

Yawn

burn him

groping was the only way to make sure you got a bed for the night when i was a youngun. The fatties were always appreciative and guaranteed you somewhere cheaper to stay than a taxi home.

.. but two women have come forward in recent weeks claiming he groped them during the 1970s and 1980s.

I’m going into hiding until this is all over.

Smashy and Nicey anyone?

Twas a bit of a giveaway the other week when Liz Kershaw went public with her “I was groped by a DJ while live on air” story and the paper put a photo of DLT next to the piece with a caption along the lines of “DLT was also a DJ at Radio 1 at the time”.

Anyone got a sweepstake going?

yes, and

he was on my ‘who will be next’ list

If the offender is in a recognised position of trust then the age limit is under 18 in current law. Can’t be retrospectively applied, just mention it as a point of interest; you can be prosecuted for ‘consensual’ sexual activity with someone who is over the legal age of consent.

http://www.heraldseries.co.uk/news/1905856.0/

Is Radio 1 DJ a “recognised position of trust”?

Wrong? Yes. Worthy of prosecution if there is evidence? Yes. Paedophile? No as they were 17.

mike; no, just controversially bringing a bit of interesting fact and law that I thought was relevant to an STW thread for the sake of conversation which is why I “just mentioned it as a point of interest”. Same applies for “indecent images of children” with the adult age being 18, so there is a specific defence of marriage; if you were 19 and took kinky pictures of your 17yr old girlfriend you could expect to have your house burnt down by a pitchfork-wielding mob as the law could brand you a paedophile. In reality the police/CPS would probably decide it wasnt in the public interest to prosecute, but it’s an offence in law.

Won’t happen again, sorry 😀

‘Banana on sodomoy charge’ is possibly my favourite headline of all time.

From the Wolverhampton Echo ?

Is it wrong to want Moyles to be next?

DLT was on our list too along with Freddy Star and Gary Glitter

Others on our list (made after a few) included

Ken Dodd ( the Diddy men gave that one any)
Michael Bentine

I can’t remember any more.

got to tell you ken dodds as straight as a die.. the ‘diddy’ men were all adults.. after shows they used to all meet in a restaurant i worked in after the meal they all got called one at a time to table at the end of the restaurant where ken paid em and praised or bollocked em.. top bloke always stopped and thanked us for staying late etc..
