150 days in jail as he's a lying tnuc who could have caused even more issues than are happening unnecessarily already.

Glad he got locked up. A lying fool whose actions diminish the likelihood that people who are genuine victims of attack will be believed. His story sounded dodgy and fabricated from the start. Needlessly threw his own career away too.

I don't think he had much of a career left anyway. This was obviously someone desperate to get back into the limelight at any cost.

Ron Atkinson had his punditry career ended for far less.

I disengage, I turn the page.

Absolutely agree however I would hope that this is seen as just opportunism from a failing actor, abhorrent as it may be, to gain some attention selfishly, pathetically and ridiculously.

Wasn't he homosexual too? Again, I'd like to imagine both of those communities distance themselves from him as much as possible, for their own sake.

Does say something about culture though in that he felt so comfortable as to pull off something like that. Perhaps he envisaged some sort of martyrdom amongst certain group/peoples?

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

Well done TE

Dave CHappelle is a f**king brilliant comedian and a voice of our time.

I don't as a rule usually listen to too many american stand ups, he is just on a different level however.

No, do love this line from the BBC however:

"Smollett has always maintained the hoax incident, which took place in Chicago in 2019, was real."
