More stories will inevitably appear and embarrass the BBC. Yet again the Corporation will be accused of doing nothing and just hoping to keep a sock on it…
How often do people say this though, and then it emerges that they did make a complaint at the time and it was swept under the rug or there was 'not enough evidence' to do anything?Makes you wonder how all this comes out all at once after years, it's almost as if these "Stars" have upset someone high up in the organisation.

We had someone at our company who was a complete fuckwit. She once spat in a colleagues face, but because it happened outside work, and it was basically his word against hers (and I guess a taxi driver, if he could have been bothered to track him down) the company refused to do anything other than basically keep them apart. When we spoke to a mate who worked for the same company in a different country, we mentioned her name and he laughed saying he could 'tell a few stories' about this person. Nothing happens with each individual case, so nothing gets put on record, and you don't get a full picture of someone's behaviour. If you did, there would clearly be enough complaints to make it extremely unlikely that they weren't all actually true. But companies would rather protect themselves from accusations of false dismissal.
How often do you see it in America, when some power-hungry cop gets caught shooting some innocent person, than they actually have a list of complaints as long as your arm. But each one is taken on its individual merits and nobody is there to look at the overall pattern.

See what you did there:)More stories will inevitably appear and embarrass the BBC. Yet again the Corporation will be accused of doing nothing and just hoping to keep a sock on it…

Presumably he put his hands down his front, grabbed it, while pulling his underwear down with his other hand!John barrowman got cancelled for flashing his bits.
