The reality of course that most of them (the ones who have gone public) are successful in their own right.Victim blaming. The women making complaints want their 15 minutes

13 to begin with, 3 more after GW accused middle-age women of a certain age ganging up on him, and now his ghost writer.

Nothing to do with the police, nothing to do with the law and nothing to do with a trial.
This is extreme work place bad behaivour.
Can't believe there are a still a few who can't see this.
It's probably because some people don't realise when you are watching TV you are watching people at work.
Illustrates why I have the old loose cannon on ignore.Victim blaming. The women making complaints want their 15 minutes

Excellent point.
Kirsty Wark. Desperate to be remembered as the woman harassed by a TV food presenter.

.. at a stretch.
I don’t think people really understand how TV works TBH. Some even seem to think that him being on the BBC means he’s a BBC employee rather than someone paid by a production company who in turn sell the programme to the BBC.

An interesting point.
There are allegations that go further than inappropriate behaviour so I would expect the police to look into some of those.
And there’s the unwanted comments which would in all likelyhood be dealt with internally and then possible civil cases?
I agree in that the man has a right to a full and thorough investigation. Just as the people making the allegations do.

Yeah, I originally typed “TV chef” but he’s not that either.
Reality tv presenter?

I think he's a middle class television execs idea of working class.

Silly old bat
The complaints were made at the time but ignored by those in charge. Now the victims are being listened to, which in turn is giving more the courage to speak up.
No reward, no additional fame, just wanting a dirty old man no longer working with them.

You do realise the accusers haven't "changed their mind" right?
Is that actually what you think has happened here?

Yes, I think this is a packaged brand bought in - a product purchased.
Others are a bit different, if I'm a celeb was tendered out you'd still consider it ITV.
But the modern Masterchef is a worldwide brand bought by many broadcasters.
However, the TV industry is really bad at explaining how it works and broadcasters promote their programmes "as their own" so they do have a level of responsibility.

You've got insider experience. Would you say that the broad issue is the lack of procedures. Or that so many working in the industry are on freelance contracts and so in a highly precarious position making complaining that much more difficult. Or that the procedures are outsourced by the broadcaster to the production company. Or something else?

I have had sexually innuendo said directly to me from men of a certain age and ladies of a certain age quite a lot of times through my life.
Can someone tell me who I should contact as it appears 30 plus years on I may been Wallaced or do the people who said this stuff needs to be famous for me to gain any traction?

By no means do you have to be famous.
Survivors and perpetrators of sexual harassment come from all backgrounds and walks of life.
