Unfortunately there is nothing in law to prevent royalties being paid to such people, it is perhaps time that if they must show old performances or include any appearances of these people in transmissions as repeats that any royalties go to charities.
He should not get them,no way.

He had it all before, he chose to throw his status and life away by his vile actions.

He gets a lot of groans and stick for it though.

Don't see the problem really. It doesn't affect any of our lives what money he does or doesn't earn.

A spokesman said: “It would be inappropriate for the BBC to rewrite history, so the programme was shown in its entirety.”

I am sure I read somewhere that Glitter sold his recording royalty rights years ago though?

Well the BBC may not feel it has the right to re-write history but this is 'its' history and the simple action required if they feel they couldn't edit that part is then 'not' to transmit any of that episode and use another piece of footage where he didn't feature at all.

It does make you question whether the issue of Royalities paid should be sujbect to some disclaimer in cases such as this.

I know it can be argued that this all came to light long after it was all made public about how he was, but still, it really doesn't sit well with me.

It's almost as though the very thing he is infamous for is now allowing him to make more money on the back of his awful misdeeds. That just cannot be right.

It's like letting an everyday 'common' Paedo out of jail and every few years, giving him a wad of money because of what work he perhaps did years before he was found out. It seems so very wrong.

I'm sure there are lots of questionable people paid royalties for all kinds of things. Who's going to decide who gets what?

I'm sure there are Livia - it nothing more than a general thought and comment - I don't make the rules up as far as royalites go - so I have no idea what is or is not involved. Merely my thoughts on the matter as far as my own post is concerned: I can't answer for anyone else who have the same thoughts.

I wasn't directing my comment to you Pyra... it was just a general thought in response to the OP.
