The same with Noel Fielding. There's the Geldof stuff, but beyond that, and I know it sounds incredibly naive, but I've not really heard much other than "you get the vibe" and because of one of his now convicted mates. 

A friend of mine used to live opposite a secondary school and knew some of the girls there. She said Noel Fielding used to hang around them a *lot*.

There's a rapist from Baby Reindeer based on a some British comedy chap that apparently "everyone knows who it is". So I imagine there is more to come down the line, whoever he is.

A comedy writer I follow said that after the news about Brand aired on TV, he was going through the next ad break thinking "predator, predator, predator" for half of the voiceovers. I'm not going to pretend to any secret knowledge, and it's not a conversation I've had with the few people I know in stand-up, but you hear enough to know that, similar to indie wrestling, there are private conversations and messages along the lines of "don't accept a lift from this guy", "don't let him get you in a room alone".

I don't know enough about the Baby Reindeer thing, but my impression was that it could well be a producer/promoter more than a working comic.

Sorry to link to the Metro but apparently there is another super injection which has been granted to a British male celebrity accused of being a wrong 'un

Not a comment on this or you Deathrey more of a general comment, but I do think people saying "God I hope it's so and so" is a bit rank.

I get people don't like people, and there's plenty of people I dislike, but we shouldn't be hoping anyone is a wrongun to be honest.

100% agree, also with people randomly speculating who it could be. For an innocent party, that's incredibly damaging.

These and the "well they'll know what getting raped is all about now" gags I see are proper truck full of thick cunts in town behaviour. Yeah guys, hoping people get raped regardless of who they are is proper lols. Twats.

I remember Richard Osman saying that the guy from Baby Reindeer was a TV producer and he knew who it was as it's another one of those open secrets among the TV world.

I wonder if the Brand and Walliams downfall happening in such quick succession will start a bit of a Me Too-style movement within the comedy industry? There's plenty more TV comics (never mind TV in general) who's actions are open secrets (and possibly illegal). But then again some - as that article dethrey posted - already have injunctions, or they have legal teams who's be on your case faster than they can tie their durag up.

I bet DomInik Diamond feels vindicated now with kicking off on Walliams during Night of Plenty. But well, the next lad to be called is...

Well, it's not Mark Lewis Jones as he's from the village up the road, and it can't be Richard Gadd, as being surnamed Gadd would be too convenient.

Faded musician and general headcase Ian McNabb posted this a few days ago and pretty swiftly took it down as soon as the comments started to land:

He’s followed it up trying to backtrack but more positively, every venue he was booked to play on his upcoming tour has cancelled the gigs and made everyone aware of the reason.

He’s well known as a conspiracy theorist and sees himself as more in the known than the general public, but Jesus Christ this is such a disgusting and dangerous post to be making. He’s hardly internationally known but has a big enough reach for this kind of attitude to continue to trickle into the mindset of others.

Conversely and to echo others’ comments, Lucy Beaumont has done an incredibly brave thing knowing it could wipe her TV career out, but I’d like to think those close to her in the same circuit will have her back and collectively refuse to work with any show or producer who blacklists her.

What baffles me is the number of people who do not know the details of the allegations, did not follow the trial, do not understand how courts or sentencing works but ABSOLUTLEY MUST have their opinion known. Just very bizarre behaviour if you ask me.

One of the things many are saying is "there was no forensic evidence!". Its an argument I just don't understand. In the rape he was found guilty of, Brand and the survivor were both clear that they had sex. That was never in question. The issue was the removal of consent but Brand doing what he wanted anyway. Under these circumstances what on earth would forensics evidence? This is what I mean when I say it seems people cant even be bothered to learn the details before loudly making their opinions known.

Most bullshit 'take' I've heard regarding all this, from one of our regular customers who is a massive conspiracy theorist and general idiot, is that the whole Brand and Walliams coverage is a ploy by 'the establishment' to cover up the fact that Meghan Markle's dad is a wrong 'un too.

Well the establishment arn't doing a very good job because that's been all over the news for the past 2 weeks.

Thick as pigshit.

Thats what happened. The DEEP STATE caught wind of Markles old man's noncing and they thought "lets say that Russell Brand raped a woman in Brighton in 1999"

The idea that 'the establishment' would 'fit Brand up' by framing him for a crime with one of the lowest conviction rates defies all logic & critical thought. Absolute cretins.

Almost without fail, every time I see someone saying "why aren't the mainstream media talking about this?", it's on the front page of BBC News.

I think it's very telling, because they see it as a crime that they could be accused of too, which tells you far more about them than about "the establishment".
