How did he win it in the first place? He's hardly Nigel Havers is he? He's not even as good as that bloke in Allo Allo who was the English Policeman!

Well if you wanted to do that, why not give it to someone like Steve McQueen? An incredible director who's made four critically acclaimed films and has actually won two BAFTAs for work he's made and an Oscar.

Having said that, I still don't think four films is enough to justify an outstanding contribution award. It should be an end-of-career thing, really.

If he is innocent until proven.... Why have they already taken the award off him!!!!!

I mean I was taking the piss, of course. I love it when these "innocent until proven guilty" people come out of the woodwork as if we're not allowed to have an opinion on something unless a court of law has ruled on it (only happens in rape and sexual assault cases, incidentally, which is pretty telling).

Someone was saying on Twitter why should he have it taken off him for something that has nothing to do with his work? But this award is a bit more like Sports Personality of the Year compared to POTY. It should take into account more than the work you've produced. You're being awarded for your contribution to the industry, and if your contribution happens to include attempting to destroy the careers of other people who refuse your sexual advances, and making people uncomfortable on set, then that should be taken into account too. And as much as some people would like to think they should, no BAFTA doesn't have to follow the same burden of proof than a court of law does.
 
Some of the allegations date back to his time in Doctor Who and now the video of him joking about Barrowman constantly whipping his cock out on set and even resting it on camile corudis shoulder one time is making some now see why Eccleston quit saying he didn't like the working atmosphere and how RTD ran things.

If such stuff as indecent exposure by barrowman and possibly bullying and harrasment from Clarke were going on and openly on the barrowman front so, only to be laughed off as joking about, well the production company and bbc wales learnt fuck all after all the shit it ignored in the 70s/80s.
