maryportfuncity 10,654 Posted July 8, 2023 So, this BBC star accused of paying a teenager for sexually explicit photos is a male presenter.

Ulitzer95 12,654 Posted July 8, 2023 Current or former BBC “star”? I note that Hardeep Singh Kohli is all over the papers this week as more sex pest stories have come about after several more women have come forward… Keeping this chat on topic, Kohli isn’t the type to off himself. Every time he’s exposed for his behaviour, he simply goes quite for a few weeks then carries on as if nothing happened. He hasn’t been abandoned by either the Scottish comedy circuit or the Scot Nat community. I very much get the impression that he gets a huge kick out of exposing himself or shocking women. Like Jimmy Savile once boasted on HIGNFY “I’m feared in every girls school in Britain”, Kohli drops similar hints. Until very recently his Twitter display pic was him wearing a t-shirt that says “weekend offender”. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,479 Posted July 8, 2023 Current apparently. So you want a male BBC presenter who was working in May but now isn't on TV. Or presumably radio to be fair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Old Crem 3,608 Posted July 8, 2023 Rumours of Gary Linekar, Huw Edwards or Stephen Nolan. The BBC news last night said the victim was male but the sun didn’t give a gender. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The BBC news last night said the victim was male but the sun didn’t give a gender. Dunno much about Nolan's proclivities but the other two are blatantly straight - so unlikely calls if the victim here is male. Tbh, I'm thinking more some famous but essentially vacuous entertainment presenter of the kind given to combining massive ego and miniscule talent. Meaning I'm already ruling out George Alagiah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
