[Edwards, who earned Ł475,000 a year
at the corporation, secretly groomed a
vulnerable 17-year-old boy while working
as Britain’s most respected newsreader]

Great Young Actor


[The Downfall of Huw Edwards,
the two-part docudrama stars Martin Clunes as Edwards.

It will follow the real-life story of how the former
BBC news presenter became the centre of a grooming scandal.

Well made Drama
showing the trouble Huw Edwards caused
to the parents of the Lad. (Aged 17)

Brief glimpse of Huw
wanking. (yuck)


Good the Lad, now 23
is over the drugs


Spoiler:

The Other young fella (Got Arrested)
sent the images of boys aged 6 or 7
good the drama did not show them.



Amazing Edwards
escaped jail.

Also, Edwards
moaning about this Drama that he had not yet watched.

He should shut his Dirty Gob.

He took photos/videos of 6 or 7-year-old boys
onto his phone from another young lad.

I think he should have done some time
in prison, for that.

Yes how he got away without a prison sentence is wrong.

Outstanding performance from Martin Clunes his accent and mannerisms were faultless.

Two more startling thing for me was that the press were aware for years but it was 'not in the public interest' and how open he was about his activities, booking hotel rooms in his own name, who was protecting this guy
