C4 Dispatches special investigation - Russell Brand

@OldGreyFox , That sentence I put in bold type was a quote from a newspaper in 2013 - they were not my own words

I would not describe Brand as a comedian either.

Thereā€™s no middle ground with him, you either like him or loathe him. But no matter your feelings it doesnā€™t make him guilty. I would be more inclined to believe these so called accusers if they had reported it at the time, not later on. But Prince Andrew is now old news so itā€™s time for the next poor bugger to be hung out to dry.
Iā€™m not a fan of his either but he did make me giggle in the remake of the St Trinianā€™s Films.

To say I canā€™t stand him would be an understatementā€¦ nuff said!

I agree Rox. :+1: People might not like him or Katie Hopkins, but it doesnā€™t make them wrong.

I dont believe Iā€™ve ever seen a Russell Brand programme.
Obviously I must of lived a sheltered life :face_with_hand_over_mouth:
But what Iā€™ve read about Brand over the last few days should they be true I donā€™t feel Iā€™ve missed out

Brand ā€¦Well he might well be a wrong un, however weā€™ll have to wait and see the outcome should these revelations end up in court.

He used to be on tv a lot in the first decade of this century. He built his reputation on being sleazy so no doubt the allegations are true but probably wonā€™t be prosecuted unless victims make a formal complaint.
Itā€™s swamping the news at the moment.

Hi

I have deliberately kept away from this sleazebag.

Years ago both he and Johnathon Ross made some very abusive comments about a young girl who was related to a famous TV personality.

They thought it was very funny to do so, a huge joke.

Completely false and highly damaging.

They are very, very lucky that the family involved did not react in the same way that the males of any Yorkshire family so affected would have reacted.

They are so dismissive of women they should have been outcasts from day one.

Not untrue as she had been having a fling with Brand but says it was consensual and he was addicted to sex , she saw it as a friends with benefits relationship.

It made the news here - go to about 6 minutes in.

He is not well known here I donā€™t think but he has been on commercial TV here. He seems an appalling person.

Comparison to Jimmy Saville including an interview between the two
