Random Irritations

I see Gino di Campo is in the news for being allegedly inappropriate on set.
 
Automated scam calls at work. Yesterday it was banking, today it is 'your internet is being used for fraudulent activity'. We know it's a scam but they are still irritating and you also know that somewhere out there, someone is pressing 1 and getting scammed. Horrible people.
Have you not had the undercover CIA agent who is in Africa tracking scammers?
During his investigation he discovered my personal and financial details were compromised and I'm eligible for $2.6m compensation.
Do they think I'm an idiot?
On the upside Ferrari have acknowledged my order.
 
That’ll be him gone, just like Wallace.
What is difficult to comprehend is the fact that, on some of the photos linked to the stories, he is shown apparently naked, covered in just an apron, on live morning TV with the presenters (Holly and Phil) laughing along with his 'joke'. If powerful figures in the media allow this sort of laddish behaviour, isn't it inevitable that he will get carried away and think he is untouchable?
The producers need to have a hard look at themselves and not just try to blame the individuals.

PS - This is not a defence of any alleged behaviour.
 
I was at a gig last night and there was a couple in front of us that just kept talking to each other throughout the whole thing. During the section where they play two quieter songs on acoustic, all I could hear was them nattering away over the top! What's the point of paying 60 quid for a ticket if you're not going to listen to any of it?? Morons. I was going to have a word, but another chap in front beat me to it - they quietened down for all of about one minute before carrying on again. Until the two or maybe three of their favourite ones, where the chap did a performative dance for everyone while filming it on his phone. It's enough to put you off going to gigs altogether.

In Gordon, Gino and Fred on ITV he was often naked or wearing an apron or cowboy chaps with his bum exposed. Ok, it was blurred but clearly it was expected of him to play the clown.

Not only that, but how does the alleged behavior reflect on Ramsey and Freddie and what position does it put them in? And in no way am I suggesting they knew and did nothing.
The ramifications for others around him are huge especially if the allegations are true and others around him knew and did nothing.
Seperate reputations and empires could crumble rapidly.

Was it a very quiet gig😉 I saw Muse and you could have held a megaphone and id have not heard you!

From the clips I have seen with Gino on the show there was a lot of “innuendo” form the presenters to him etc

As with Wallace the devil will be in the detail but regardless his career is now done

I’m not sure these “allegations” etc should be made public until any sort of enquiry is done

What if there is nothing in it ?

They were mostly laughing hysterically at his "pranks" and were also seen naked in some episodes, but only ever in each other's company.
Clearly, the producers of that series expected and encouraged it.
 
A lot of people don't report bad behaviour from senior persons because they feel it may harm their own position and when they do it's often brushed away as overreaction.

As I mentioned, it was the two quiet acoustic tracks that you could really hear them droning over, and we stand a bit further back than we used to as we're nearly 40 and not cut out for moshpits. 😄

It's just rude and annoying generally to talk over the band you've supposedly paid to see. Don't understand why you'd do that.
