Paul Bearer 5,687 Posted July 11, 2023 Well, you asked for it and here it is. Huw Edwards newsreader suffers from depression and looks a bit podgy, a possible suicide in the making or he’ll beat this depression? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,464 Posted July 11, 2023 Nobody ‘beats’ depression, but hopefully he’ll be able to deal with it. As people have said, it’s his private life (so come on baby, leave it out). And spare a thought for his colleagues Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble and Grubb, whose team are a man down while Huw serves his suspension. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sly Ronnie 617 Posted July 12, 2023 I didn't know "depression" meant an alleged interest in young men. I thought it was feeling low and shit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now you can safely move all the Presenters posts into this thread, Mr Bearer. Ain’t it great being an admin? It’s odd to see the professed shock from colleagues and media types.

harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,464 Posted July 12, 2023 Not that I think what he has allegedly done is particularly weird/shameful, but clinical depression can make you act in strange ways that you barely recognise/comprehend once you’re ‘better’, believe me. I won’t bore you with details, but maybe a tabloid can look into it when they have time. Suffice to say, I was subcontracted by the BBC at the time. I doubt very much he’s ‘playing the card’; the past week’s events would have sent the most levelheaded to the funny farm. I feel sympathy for the ‘young person’ and their family too, but they should probably have given the Sun a wide berth. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Comped 368 Posted July 12, 2023 His wife's statement noted he'd had a significant mental health episode - my media-related mates have noted that means a little more than just going to the physc ward, at least in media-language. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hell yeah, like posing a significant threat to the life of self or others - not noted anyone accusing Huw of trying to kill them over the last few days (and fuck knows, there'd have been serious money in it for anyone with evidence of that), so we can usefully assume he's being watched today for longer than the nation usually keeps tabs on him purely with the intention of preventing him creating more bad news. If either of those who'd encountered him online then shared their stories find their names in the public domain be interesting to see how well their mental health holds up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
