Who said there's no such thing as bad publicity?

About 20 years ago now I made friends with a very attractive Scottish lass who told me she had dated him while he was a DJ. She seemed to think he was nice enough. I guess it's a case of what doesn't break you makes you and he certainly got to experience that one first hand. We'll never know what really happened, but I doubt it was a case of straight forward rape, in the 'I'm taking it regardless' sense.

The old adage of 'If in doubt, leave it out' springs to mind.

He always seemed like a decent bloke, and has taken it very well based on that interview.
It can be hard to judge celebrities as to their honest to goodness niceness. Rolf Harris always seemed like a normal, decent, family man,
whereas Jimmy Saville always came across as a nutjob sleazeball, and the allegations never surprised me one bit.
