Quite. I just don't get the prurient interest in this. I don't think any laws have been broken. Unless they have, or there is great comedy value, I don't have even the remotest interest in the sex lives of celebrities. They're not politicians.

Oh dear, it's all a bit messy


But fark, it's not 'if' this kinda thing is going to leak out, it's when


Do showbiz people live in a bubble, I suppose they do somewhat


And yeah, after a very short while on Twitter you'll see their names



Still, I'm sure there'll be a Hello magazine type renewing of vows in the not to distant future


😳

I agree that by taking out an injunction they have made it a much bigger story. I do have some sympathy with them however, in that this really isn't something which the press should have been publishing in the first place. It is a total invasion of privacy and potentially quite damaging to their family. I don't buy the argument that there is any public interest angle.

I got it now (duh!) it's a damage limitation excercise


EVERYONE knows who this is, and if you don't, then you were never interested or cared anyway, so that's you parked up


The big fella buys a million quid's worth of time, via an injunction of no use other than to stave of the inevitable 'publicity'


Meanwhile, it's common knowledge on 'internet' but not in news print/website of UK media


By the time 'it can be published' it's old 'yeah boring' news and barely 'page 4-5' news


Fireworks pissed on, and we move on

The injunction is only an interim stage anyway. If there wasn't a decent case that reporting the story was (in law) wrong they would never have got an injunction in the first place, so even if this goes expect the case to go on, with a claim for big damages in the event that they print the story.

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
