But yet it seemed his career was ruined, ITV even took his program off air . So now all those allegations don't matter?. I don't get it.

It's not that they don't matter, but for whatever reason there doesn't seem to be enough evidence to prosecute him. But a network doesn't need the same standards when it comes to removing someone from their world.

Exactly, something doesn't have to be criminal to breach professional standards, e.g. Doctors and nurses etc. are struck off the register all the time for things that wouldn't meet the threshold of criminal charges.

Him and Schofield, the teflons of ITV.

[Now hear MY story: Noel Clarke's career imploded
after more than 20 women accused
him of sex offences but police have
yet to bring any charges...Is he one more
victim of cancel culture – or a predator who
just got what he deserved?]

Writer at the DM Sarah Oliver

[Noel Clarke's twin Bafta statuettes sit on the
bookshelves of his West London home.
Once they represented the pinnacle of his
achievement as an actor, writer, producer
and director.
Today the bronze faces stare blankly
out over a career that lies in tatters.

Until a year ago Clarke was part of the
British film and TV establishment.
He could be seen on screen in the
BBC's Doctor Who and top-rated police dramas
on ITV and Sky.]

[He'd traced his roots in an episode of
Who Do You Think You Are?
and written and starred in the
acclaimed Hood Trilogy of youth
culture films, directing two of them
Today he is a pariah after a string of
highly damaging allegations led to the
British Academy of Film and
Television Arts suspending his membership,
and withdrawing his 2021 Bafta award
for outstanding contribution to
British cinema just nine days after
he was handed the coveted gong.]



[In the past year, Clarke and his wife Iris,
who have been together for two decades,
have had a new baby they haven't dared
tell anyone about.
Financially the family has been left
'running on fumes'.
Most seriously, at his lowest,
Clarke was suicidal.
He pocketed a folding hunting knife bought
as a souvenir while filming Auf Wiedersehen,
Pet in Arizona 20 years ago and planned
to cut his own throat.]


[Clarke makes a plea for the context of incidents
and conversations
to be considered and
for women to 'differentiate between an
evil guy and someone who might have
made a mis-step'.

He also believes the entertainment industry
needs to clean out its Augean stables
in a calm and rational manner, saying: 'I am not trying
to excuse evil men. But I think we are all here' – he means
at this impasse – 'because of them.

'I'm not a predator. I have crossed the road to avoid
walking behind women since I was 15 years old.'


He acknowledges that not all of his past
behaviour has been beyond reproach,
particularly when events of almost two
decades ago are judged by the standards of today.]



Whoever was behind the 'assassination',

as Clarke refers to it,
then emailed the TV companies he worked for.
And anonymous requests for information
were sent, unsolicited,
to women who might know him, saying:
'We are working with and led by survivors
of Noel Clarke. The number is very high…'

'I've been a regular dude, for sure, I flirt.
Have I ever made a saucy comment?
One hundred per cent.
But not to the extent that it warranted the
destruction of my life.]

Should he go back to acting?


Should he go on ITV1HD "This Morning"?
or all 4 TV news stations?

I mean if Johnny Depp can convince the world he’s the real victim and come out of domestic abuse allegations with more fans swinging from his dick than ever then… why not? He might as well give it a punt.

bots 29-05-2022 12:46 PM

part of the problem is that the police take way to long to either say they are going to charge someone or stop investigating. For someone who is innocent, it must be a nightmare

I agree
worth a try.

[Noel Clarke legal action against
Guardian suffers high court setback

Judge rejects argument of lawyers for actor
on meaning of eight articles that Clarke says
unfairly defamed him]



[Clarke argued that the meaning of the Guardian
articles was that he was guilty.
His barrister, Adam Speker KC, argued that simply
including Clarke’s denials did not reduce
the seriousness of the meaning,
and that the denials had been included
in a dismissive manner intended
to suggest they should be disregarded.]


This must piss him off.

Sounds like he was on a power trip to me, thought he had a bit of power/influence and could get away with it.

He didn't realise he wasn't wealthy enough or the right colour for that.

The right colour? have you heard of Gino de Campo and Gregg Wallace, just recent examples of a long list of white men who allegedly went beyond what was expected, why demean what the women are saying because he is black?

I'm saying that to get away with it you have to be very wealthy AND white. The people you've mentioned are not that sort of wealthy.

The comment also isn't to suggest that he's being unfairly treated because of his colour; throw the book at all of the perverts. Just include the princes and presidents in that stat.
