“Category A Pictures Involve Torture Of Children!” | Huw Edwards Scandal

BBC director-general Tim Davie will face tough questions from Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy about what the corporation knew about Huw Edwards’s case after the veteran broadcaster admitted to making indecent images of children.

The corporation has said it knew of the veteran broadcaster’s arrest on “suspicion of serious offences” in November, but continued employing him until April.

Questions will surely be raised about why he continued to receive his large salary – as the highest paid newsreader at the corporation – for five months after his arrest on charges of making indecent photographs of children.

Talk’s Alex Phillips and Kevin O’Sullivan discuss the scandal and BBC’s handling of the case.

Kev: “For once in the BBC’s life, do the right thing and sack Tim Davie!”

People in glass houses don't throw stones, the whole establishment is protecting itself.

[healgrowlovecommunity]

Torture of children? Dear God... And this is the man who announced that the Queen had died. It makes me feel sick.

[grahamorgan]

Sack him, when are they going to imprison him?

[SamJeffries-ydhy]

This man is beyond sick I cannot even fathom what kind of person has this kind of images in their possession

[davidbillings]

Starmer and his leftie cronies would defend him.

[TinaNicholson-gk]

I can’t believe he’s not in the slightest bit humbled 😮 he’s all dressed up like he’s going to a film premiere 😮

[arnoldsaunders]

Do not pay the Licence fee. Sod the BBC. Nandy will do what Starmer instructs her do.

[jonellis]

Only one way to deal with this social predator.

[edda]

Not their money, they don't care, not mine either, stop paying the license fee.

[DeborahOrr-zh]

To think he was getting help for his mental health. How are the children he was watching being abused, metal health. He should go to prison. By watching these vile photos and videos, he is responsible for their torture.

[philparmenter]

How many child abusers did he report on during his employment?

[stephennorris]

Looked like some mafia boss turning up in the dark glasses, narcissistic tendencies by the looks.

[NickNick-tpcr]

Don't forget bbcs Stuart hall, they actually knew he was abusing in the premises.

[RealityEscapeeItIsMe]

I love Kevin and Alex. No nonsense and says what needs to be said.

[Catherine-]

Alex and Julia are my favourites but Kevin is right up there because he radiates fairness and a good heart!

[Charlievans]

"Plush Windsor hotel suite " paid for by bbc expense account.

[robertcooper]

The childrens families should sue to get the publics money back

[NickNick-tpcr]

Edwards won't go to prison, his accomplice was let off with a suspended sentence.

[Pete_]

Anyone still paying the TV licence at this point must be mad.

[Tellnellie-tc]

What made this once soo respected Huw Edwards to a predator of such young children!? But, ... please, dont focus only on Huw Edwards, because he is the one who has been CAUGHT ❗☝️
