I used to love media watch :lol:

I know I said "son" but I more meant she'd better get a good lawyer because he's got a QC. His losses from this would be huge too so she might be having a Craig deduction come out of her pay until she dies.

Given multiple women have made allegations I dare say he's the one who should be most worried about throwing money down the drain.

So's the defendant... the point being??
The point being that gaining a part in the Rocky Horror Show in 2018 wouldn't be of any importance to her career, she wasn't interested in it to begin with and her allegations weren't remotely connected to missing out on a part as alleged.
haha, of course. Why take the role then? :lol:
I'm talking about the allegation she only called out McLachlan for his behaviour because she wasn't offered a part in the 2018 production not her original time in the role of Janet.

^ How would you know that that's the case? And either way, how does one prove such a thing? Most men either wouldn't care or would feel too embarrassed to say anything about it publicly.

That made me think of an ex colleague.

She was 10 years older than me, unmarried (the gossips would say she had a bit of history and knew her way around the boudoir) and, as the only male in a team she was very touchy - feely.

She wasn't my type at all. Although I got along well with her in a work environment, I had zero interest in anything else, so it was quite off putting when if she came into a meeting after I was seated she'd come up behind me and hug me without warning. Then, if she could, she'd sit beside me and frequently put her hand on my thigh.

I never said anything to her, I found it uncomfortable but we were peers and worked in different buildings so I only had to cop it a couple of times a week. I just figured she was a touchy feely kind of person and the fact that I didn't reciprocate in any way hopefully gave her a hint.

If she ever had put the hard word on me or gone the grope, I would have just said "sorry, not interested"

For a bloke, I dare say it's easier to just brush that shit off than it is for a woman.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Well you'd think A fellow cast member would come forward and support Him if what he says is true, as in, yeah She did the same to me. Im not judging either of them, i wasnt there. Youd have to agree though, with others substantiating her claim, there is more likely truth there. And the same could be said if more guys (or girls) come forward with a similar story to Craigs.

Its all seedy, and im not enjoying any of it. It will colour my view when i watch anything any of these people are in.
