Bill Roach Questioned.
« on: May 01, 2013, 11:37:52 AM »
According to the news, the actor Bill Roach (Ken Barlow in Corry) has been questioned by police about allegations of 'historic' sexual abuse of a minor. Dear God, when will it all end?

can't say I'm surprised by that, always found him a bit creepy, and out of the 1000+ women he has(admitted) he slept with I'll bet a fair few were underage

He has actually "has been arrested on suspicion of the rape of an under-age girl in the 1960s" which is the law and not a made up one  ;)

If they jailed every rock star who had slept with an under age groupie there wouldn't be many left to entertain us !!!!
Its seems that it was once 'acceptable'  (like drinking and driving before the drinking and driving laws   ;)  )

Kevin I think it comes down to the definition of rape rather than sex with a minor.....

In this particular case I agree, but sex with minors has also been alluded to in this thread and is another main 'theme' of the 'post Saville' enquiries, which this case is a 'follow on' from.
