Be interesting to see the 'relevations'. He makes no bones about his wayward past and ways, has never portrayed himself as some kind of 'Saint' and generally is a self-proclaimed twonk.

For this 'revelation' to have any kind of umph it certainly needs to come up with something truly beyond the pale.

Yup. If it is Brand considering his past I can't get too excited if it's his turn in the barrel.

Back when I watched Trigonometry....which is very much of a mixed bag from my perspective....I remember them saying that they would never have Brand on...but they wouldn't say why.

Personally, while Brand is on the left and wouldn't agree with some of my politics I do have overlap with him on many key issues.

I also respect him as a persona who genuinely cares and wants to help people I think that transcends political differences.

Because he attacks the mainstream....for good reason....that same mainstream are after him and I don't regard many of them as having one tenth the ethics he has.

So, while I'll listen to claims I'm pretty skeptical about both the motivation and whether they amount to anything worthwhile outside of the 'woke' perspective.

Brand's response to tonight's claims have just appeared and can be seen here.

Gathering a head of steam , on the BBC, anyway. Allegations of rape and controlling behaviour.

WTF ? Already this is trial by media. Surely any criminal allegations should go the legal route and not straight to media ?

Poor Brand. Once the media darling, in the blink of an eye, now undergoing trial by media over criminal allegations.

 


I disengage, I turn the page.

Between 2006 and 2010. Taken a longtime for the 4 unnamed females to come forward. Hope they have concrete evidence although as s**t sticks could be another career ruined on say so.

Well quite. And I suspect this will actually add viewers to his You Tube stuff.

Bloody ludicrous amount of hype. And the man is left unable to really defend himself given there appears to be zero chance of this actually ever going to court.

With his past he is always going to be easy fodder would anyone want to attempt to demonise/deplatform or defame him.

Whether or not there’s any truth I wouldn’t know but will watch the dispatches programme for what it’s worth.

Does seem to be too coincidental that somebody with a huge following, who constantly criticises the powers that be, is suddenly the subject of investigations into historic events.

 


Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

LOL. So it was not aliens then? Apparently, and I did have my suspicions before hand, Brand is a t***. Who knew? Annoymous accusations from well over a decade ago, along with publicly available clips, and a single 'comedian', who I have never heard of saying not much at all, is not investigative journalism.

Pity the victims here but good to see another arrogant "celeb" getting karma.

Everyone who knew is now acting all shocked, nothing changes in that corrupt showbiz world.

I have equal disdain for Brand and C4 so win win for me if it turns out to be baseless which I doubt.

The Sachsgate scandal was disgusting and Ross got off lightly

The impression I got was that Channel 4 for all its moralising have exploited these girls just as he did. Pre-show articles indicated that a number of celebrities were to be included and it turns out that the man.... voted? Elected? ******* of the year 3 times ******* a lot of women ten years ago.
Of course if the more serious allegations are true there should be consequences and maybe the bigger story is how he was enabled but otherwise it's hard to see how those responsible for a joint channel 4/Sunday Times investigation that took months thought this was worthwhile beyond chasing ratings.
I'm not interested in either his comedy, if that's what the clips shown of his act were, nothing in it was funny so it's hard to tell, or his opinions but this programme was an attempted hatchet job along the lines of Keith Richards has taken a lot of drugs. Really? You don't say.

The man is vile.
Pity the alleged victims of course but if true it couldn't come crashing down around a nicer man!
He is deluded and without shame.
