Image updated as original failed. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/a...s-emerged.html Back in 2008 He Flashed some actors and staff Last edited by arista; 20-12-2022 at 03:14 AM. |

This is ridiculous. He was called out for the flashing on Doctor Who/Torchwood sets back in 2008 and apologised at the time.
Just deflecting from abusers like Noel Clarke. |

You've got to realise aswell Marsh when is a joke not a joke? , back in 2008 Barrowman probably thought it was funny but what if people felt uncomfortable at the time ? But as i've always said , there isn't always consistency with these things, if people want to look through inappropriate behaviour and flashing etc we'll probably be here forever. Bigbrother alone has tons of this type of behaviour. |

It SOUNDS like he apologised and didn't do it again 12+ years ago in which case dragging it up now is a bit sus. Though I don't know the full story so that's just based on what I've gathered here. |

AFAIK the claims made against Barrowman are the exact same ones from back then, not additional incidents since. So, it being brought up as though it's brand new information now IS a deflection technique. Last edited by Marsh.; 05-06-2021 at 10:47 PM. |

I don't know the full story either ,but this isn't the first time old stuff gets dragged up from the past .
Since the #metoo movement , wasn't there actors apologising for old comments they'd said in the past which seemed offensive? . |

…so in 2008 he was exposed as having at times exposed himself on set etc and exposing himself during interviews…and in a BBC interview referring to those times in interviews , he was encouraged to expose himself again during that interview by the hosts…so he did, while it was all being joked about and laughed at …?…and now over a decade later he’s losing work for these incidents…?…work that he surely should never have been given if this is how he behaved…?…

i think the uncomfortable reality is that the BBC is probably riddled with this sort of stuff. As an organisation the BBC has a lot to answer for in the way it let people behave while being funded by the public.

…so openly though while on air, it was encouraged…?…that’s not a ‘behind the scenes’ thing that we the public didn’t know about while contributing the funding…that’s when their voices should have been heard and this shouldn’t still be something that is ongoing…?…it can’t surely all be blamed on the BBC if he was encouraged on air during the interview and it was laughed at while he complied.. ….this whole thing is so confusing…

i'm just thinking what reaction i would have had if i had done similar while i was working in the city .... just about anything went on in that environment, but there were lines that were never crossed ... and behaving like Barrowman did is one of them

https://www.nationalworld.com/arts-a...-judge-3258602 [Dancing on Ice judge John Barrowman has received backlash after he admitted flashing colleagues on the set of two shows. The 54-year-old is well-known for his flamboyance and humour, but has apologised for “tomfoolery,” after it emerged he had revealed himself to crew on Doctor Who and Torchwood.] Now the Lady in Charge of ITV will have to speak about him.

…that doesn’t make it any less confusing, Arista…this was all exposed in 2008 when it was compounded on in the interview and it was all found to be amusing and encouraged again…the two presenters were described as ‘goading him’ and because it was on the radio so not a visual thing for listeners, it was described as a fuss over nothing…and those paying listeners were fine with it all…?…now 13yrs later there’s backlash…why was it okay then because it never was…this wasn’t something that was pushed out of public attention and knowledge, this was live on air…

POW! BLAM!

It's a bit ridiculous that some flamboyant thespian flashing his doodah wasn't an issue until the Noel Clarke allegations. How messed up does someone have to be to listen to 20+ women accusing Clarke of actual sexual misconduct, and immediately think "but what about the time Barrowman whipped it out over a decade ago?!"

Do people remember when Danny Dyer exposed himself to Holly Willoughby on celebrity Juice, and she encouraged it . It seems celebrity Juice & Keith Lemon get away with everything , as the show has no boundaries . Keith himself has crossed the line a few times , but because he hides behind his character he gets away with it. |

Chris Pratt tells a tale of how he was supposed to “fake” expose himself in an episode of Parks and Rec but at the last minute ditched the “cover” to get the other cast members real reaction, because they were close and he knew it wasn’t an issue. But he got into some major **** with production because obviously, it’s not just the cast, there were crew and camera people etc. around too. |

And Keith Lemon has made alot of guests on his show feel uncomfortable, and I know people will say celebrity Juice is known for its smutty humour, but he has crossed the line loads of times for a cringy cheap laugh. |
