This doesn't surprise me. Because after all, there were two little boys...

I think it's the bondage and bestiality this time. Shouldn't have tied that kangaroo down, Rolf!

He's been charged: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-23880768
oh dear. is anyone on telly not a paedo in disguise ?
Strange last charge though. so 15 year old girl 6 times during the 80's (15 and 364 days = child abuse, 16 and 1 day = normal activity, strange how the system is so logical sometimes, not that it forgives it given he'd still have been about 50). a 14 year old (getting more dodgy) in the 80's as well, but interestingly "making indecent images of children" in 2012, i.e. last year. Which if it is what it sounds like doesnt really give him an leg to stand on as it were.

Perhaps this is the 14-year-old: Rolf Harris abused me in my teens, Aussie woman alleges
Wasn't sure about this when I saw it. Something seemed a bit off, e.g. apparent eagerness to speak to the media (for payment) on a subject victims find hard to discuss, eager demeanour and unblinking eyes, as if trying to seem convincing. But maybe the recent charges mean that there is something to it.

I personally think she is brave to be speaking up, and her motive could simply be that by doing this other women may feel emboldened enough to come forward.

I've no idea whether she's telling the truth or lying. That's for the courts to decide.
People do abuse other people.
People do make false accusations.

Didn't want it to be true, but the evidence was pretty damning. |

I was hoping that he was another victim of the "witch hunt", but looks like he's banged to rights.
It's just a shame Jimmy Saville isn't around to be found guilty too.
When is the sentencing?

In 1999 Rolf Harris sent a handwritten letter to a victim's father admitting sexual assault and asking for his forgiveness. The letter was produced in the London Southwark Crown Court , and shown on the telly, so it must be true. The number of assaults is very high. The judge told him to expect a jail sentence.

Ah crap. I always thought that Saville was a bit creepy, but Rolf was a thoroughly enjoyable entertainer - I even met him once as a school kid, and then he did a fantastic performance at my school.

When I was at school we went to see a Basil Brush show being filmed, so following on along the same vein, gawd knows what will be the next sensational revelation.
