There are industry guidelines where there is filming of nude and sex scenes. However when there are threats to your career if you don’t comply often results in people not whistle blowing.we need a concert and films made for an industry that has no self regulation no independent regulation and yet repeated and numerous instance of abuse
Was about to post the same thing. He was one of the most wooden actors I’d ever seen in Doctor Who - Charlie from casualty levels of awfulness - so it has always been a mystery to me how he became quite so big.I never did like Mickey during his time in Doctor Who
I wonder if ITV will pull Viewpoint tonight.
He's a crap actor anyway and I thought he come across as a bit of a twat before the allegations came out.

Yeah don’t think that’s necessary, that’s just pissing off the people who have invested in the show and the innocent actors, directors, producers and staff who have worked hard on the show. By all means don’t work with him again but pulling the finale is just daft.Imagine you were eaglely waiting for finale and now you can't watch it. They should just censor Noel.
Don't be silly, I'm sure he was very inclusive and diverse in selecting the women he abused.Wait a second, an actor who uses his ‘platform’ to preach about what a good person he is and how everyone else should be behaving, buzzwords and all, turns out to a complete wrongun? I don’t think we could have ever seen this one coming to be honest.
It's still going to be on ITV player they've just pulled it from the live schedule. Bit of a token gesture but probably the best decision.Yeah don’t think that’s necessary, that’s just pissing off the people who have invested in the show and the innocent actors, directors, producers and staff who have worked hard on the show. By all means don’t work with him again but pulling the finale is just daft.
They should CGI his character out and replace it with a grotesque cartoon monster.Imagine you were eaglely waiting for finale and now you can't watch it. They should just censor Noel.
I get his point, but it's not for that pompous prick to be the self-appointed arbiter of truth in the court of public opinion either.Tweet

People using the phrase "innocent until proven guilty" in a way that is devoid of its legal context is increasingly a pet peeve of mine.
There is (rightly) a very high standard of proof required in the context of criminal trials that (rightly) doesn't apply to other contexts. And even in the context of criminal trials, the presumption of innocence isn't absolute.
The term doesn't mean someone needs to be proven guilty in a court of law before you can confidently form your own opinion of them or their actions. It also doesn't mean people aren't entitled to, say, decline to give him an industry awards, decline to work with him, decline to employ him, decline to associate with him or publicly criticise him without the allegations having been proven beyond doubt in court. In all those contexts people are allowed to draw their own very solid conclusions based on 20 different women accusing him of misconduct.
Such a load of guff, he's even mentioned it again in his defense speech today like it's a magic shield.Don't be silly, I'm sure he was very inclusive and diverse in selecting the women he abused.
If only he were in Mrs Brown's BoysHe was also in the reboot of Auf Wiedersehen, Pet
Such a weird thing to try and find an angle for. Some guy has abused his power to sexually harass and bully women and you’re trying to put a bunch of buzz word labels into the conversation to somehow angle this as being a failing of the “woke left”?Don't be silly, I'm sure he was very inclusive and diverse in selecting the women he abused.
Genuine question, what's that got to do with it?He’s fecked. There’s no coming back from such a thorough hatchet job. Whether or not he’s innocent (which is doubtful IMO)
The only thing that might save him is the fact he’s not a middle aged white guy. Don’t think that’s enough to turn the tide though.
He probably wishes he was nowIf only he were in Mrs Brown's Boys

Like seriously, what the feck are you on about? It’s really weird behaviour.
From the man himself.Clarke said in a statement: “In a 20-year career, I have put inclusivity and diversity at the forefront of my work and never had a complaint made against me. If anyone who has worked with me has ever felt uncomfortable or disrespected, I sincerely apologise.
agreed. I also wish he presented songs of praise and co-hosted any shows that Piers Morgan does.If only he were in Mrs Brown's Boys
Eh, what? He put those buzzwords into the conversation in his public response to the allegations, not me.Such a weird thing to try and find an angle for.

Do you think.... middle aged white guys have it harder than anyone else?He’s fecked. There’s no coming back from such a thorough hatchet job. Whether or not he’s innocent (which is doubtful IMO)

Apologies in that case as I hadn’t seen that statement from him. Weird that he brought it up and it fits in well with the description of his coercive behaviour.Eh, what? He put those buzzwords into the conversation in his public response to the allegations, not me.
Seems you're maybe a bit too keen to project the angle of this being a failure of "wokeness", or whatever it is that you're desperate to argue against.
Judging from his statement the man himself seems to think that his woke credentials can be leveraged here.Do you think.... middle aged white guys have it harder than anyone else?
Not sure you need me to spell this out to you?Genuine question, what's that got to do with it?
I think in this case it's particularly poignant because it wasn't long ago (a couple of weeks?) that seemingly all of social media/TV media was absolutely gushing over some acceptance speech that he made. This is like a tailor made text book case of celebrities who talk a good game and make themselves look all great and virtuous but turn out to be utter cnuts. Especially actors, who'd have thought it!?Apologies in that case as I hadn’t seen that statement from him. Weird that he brought it up and it fits in well with the description of his coercive behaviour.
What a strange way to interpret what I said.Do you think.... middle aged white guys have it harder than anyone else?
