maryportfuncity 10,639 Posted June 6, 2014 Glitter is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on 19 June on eight counts of sexual offences against girls. regards, Hein Other charges were dropped as well but these are serious enough to warrant more custodial time if convicted. He's 70, deaf and likely to be highly unpopular amongst his fellow inmates. In the absence of Clive Dunn, he could be the new leader of our gang! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,639 Posted June 19, 2014 Back in court today, time to raise the thread and discuss the latest developments. Fuck knows, if he had the slightest suicidal tendency we'd have already seen the evidence. He's also extremely wealthy to the extent that no plausible fine for the latest charges could dent his comfort. So, probs not a 2015 contender for owt other than sudden, violent, death at the hands of someone else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was never a fan and I was reluctantly dragged to one of his gigs in the early 90s. To say he brought the house down would be an understatement. A good time was had by one and all.

maryportfuncity 10,639 Posted January 22, 2015 Well, the witnesses appear to be performing well in court at the moment. Obviously he's innocent until proven...etc etc. But there's more than one girl claiming the same thing and - like the Stuart Hall trial - they're describing the same MO. If this shit sticks he's looking at custodial time, again. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-30934846 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord Fellatio Nelson 6,218 Posted January 22, 2015 Best revelation from the trial so far has to be that Spike Milligan once tried to kill Glitter. This is quite interesting, a manic depressive trying to kill somebody and not themselves. A, sort of, munchausens by proxy suicide or summat. In the loosest possible terms, naturally.

Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted January 27, 2015 Perhaps topping the Milligan allegations, in the concurrent trial of Fred Talbot, Ian Brown has taken the stand and claimed that Talbot taught him how to masturbate as a child. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
