Phillip schofield

Seems to me it was the "A listers" who may have triggered things.
And now advertisers.
I struggle to congratulate media with anything much about anything, nowadays.

Yes I can manage to think about government policy and safeguarding issues at the same time. My job involves safeguarding and I am involved in the labour party, I really dont think I am unique.
Also I am quite grateful for the media role in this.

Not really Franbern. I think most people can manage to think of more than one thing at a time. If you were to flip the situation and everyone just thought about the cost of living scandal then Schofield and his ilk would continue to get away with their disgusting actions.

Whilst the (newspaper) media have this celebrity scandal on which to report, and for people to talk about - then people's minds are taken away froim the real disgusting scandals of the Cost ofLiving, etc.

Forsythia thank you.
Sorry, I do remember your comments.

Holly is married to the producer Dan Baldwin who produces Celebrity Juice (which is presumably the reason why Holly appears on the ghastly show).

It definitely will all come out.
I don’t think the super injunction has finished yet

Holly Willoughby left Celebrity Juice in May 2020 she was replaced by Paddy McGuinness.

Forsythia thank you.

And also, Holly Willoughby husband is described as a tv executive. Surely, he would also have heard the rumours. She knew.

Forsythia have you read the full thread?
We have talked about what he is alleged to have done; it’s possible (probable) that he groomed a child and it was covered up by ITV bosses

You know I have. I’ve replied to your comments already. I’ve also said that it’s odd for two brothers from the same family to be grooming teenage boys. Because I said that and agreed with what you said I was told I was orchestrating a witch hunt.
Are we? Or is it a good time to bring this to a widespread audience so that, as Casdon has just said, there’s more to it than previously thought. If so, they all need exposing.

To true Casdon regarding the Beeb.
Yes, I agree that it’s the bosses who will be fighting for their lives.
The lies over the weekend about being ‘deceived’ were ridiculous and despicable, also from Holly.

It’s quite clear from his actions so far that the young man doesn’t intend to pursue that line though. I get the impression he told his lawyers to confirm the affair because there were so many rumours that it needs to be out there officially so he can get on with the rest of his life. He is the victim in more ways than one in my opinion.

This could morph into something different I think. The Schofield story will run its course, but the bigger issue may turn out to be the bullying culture, the stitch up by certain celebrities of the big gigs, and the cover ups that have been going on at ITV by the look of it. One thing I am glad about is that this isn’t the BBC, as if it was the government would be having a field day.

There has to be much more to this than meets the eye.

If this chap was an adult and in a consensual relationship with Schofield then nothing illegal has occurred. Many men in that industry are in gay relationships, as are women, and never has there been a reaction like this. It is not about them being gay. Not in this day and age.

So, what is it? Why are all his photos being removed from itv, why has he gone into hiding, what has happened to this young man as a result of getting involved with Schofield? What is there yet to come out?
Otherwise, this all seems very extreme for a consensual relationship between two adult males.

On the Today programme just now.

ITV is losing millions of pounds due to advertisers dropping out.

All photos of Schofield have been removed from ITV’s studios

people in the world who haven't been abused need to read how abusers work and operate to avoid it happening within their own families
. They are charming and they fool people outside of their abuse network. It is how it all goes on and how it works, sadly

Agreed.

The tricky part in this case I think is, we dont know for sure that the young man was "abused"?

People from all walks of life manipulate others. Regardless of cicumstances or age or genders involved.

Personally I would not have been happy with a son of mine in the situation he was in, when a teenager. Or at least, I would have been making inquiries and asking lots of questions. Keeping an eye on things.

Others would be happy about that. And not seen a need to do anything at all.

And there must be some instances of that type of thing that is all above board?

Dr Ranj worked there for ten years and knew nothing of Schofield

Dr Ranj was talking about the culture of bullying from the 'top' at Itv daytime he was not talking about Schofield!

when martin frizzell took over at itv daytime was when This Morning and Loose Women started showing lots of sexual content on the shows under the guise of health items.... This Morning showed private parts of male and female

MailOnline is the website of the Daily Mail.

There are over 60 Ambassadors, they certainly were not all invited.

Schofield very friendly with The King, yet no invite to the coronation was there ? Ant and Dec were invited, they like Schofield are ambassadors for The Princes Trust

That's what you get for queue jumping!

As Louella says, Dr Raj has spoken up at ITV. Looks like he is not impressed by Martin Frizzell’s behaviour/attitude either. He’s one of the top guys there. People may remember his wife, Fiona Phillips who was on ITV for many years.

As was the case with Savile, it appears that concerns were raised by various people (some very well-known), but were dismissed or buried. In that world, if you have enough clout, you can wield enormous power and hush things up. But these things have a habit of coming out eventually, one way or another...

I guess one way or another the truth will out.
I agree Kate1949 that quite a few "celebrities" seem able to get way with too many things. The phrase, "lessons will be learned" makes me cross.
