Title: Tie me kangaroo down!
Post by: stoop on April 19, 2013, 09:53:43 AM
Who would have thought it?

Well it was posted on twitter a few weeks back but Rolfy accused of historic sex offences?

My sister-in-law met him when she was a kid when he came to their school to make a tv show. She said he was horrible and seemed to hate all the kids. Lucky kids I guess.

I was really shocked by that, of all the people, he would be the last one that you would imagine to be dodgy!

I have seen and talked to him lots of times at  work over the last 30 something years and
  All he is interested in is his work and making money and have never seen a look or comment to
   Change my mind that Rolf is about Rolf and his work.

Always wondered how he did that Jake the Peg thing.

I did a gig with him when I was about 20 or so.  I'd say he was a terrible flirt but it was all lots of fun and I certainly never felt threatened.  I've worked with him a few times since and he's always been the same.  I realise that this is about kids but I still find it hard to believe this is true.  Apart from anything else I've seen how much he adores and dotes on his wife.  I really hope it turns out not to be true.

According to the radio news it is one female (adult) who has complained about him. I'm a retired Fireman, we were terrible flirts in our younger days. Are we all going to get arrested then??

That depends on the ages of those you flirted with I would think Sandgrounder

I'm with you on this one Steve. IMHO he doesn't give off the 'vibe' like Saville, Starr, Talbot or Stuart Hall.

So the Police have named the 83 year old man from Berkshire arrested in the BBC investigation as Rolf Harris.

I had to check to make sure I wasn't watching the news on Dave.
