Where will it all end?

Now we have allegations about Sir Cliff Richard. Plenty of other names being bandied about on Google as well if you search. Shame if it is true as I collected all his records as they came off the press in the late 50’s and early 60’s(The Rock and Roll Years) I also saw all his films but seeing them recently made me cringe with embarrassment!

may be worth a look at these comments from the public, I think they are getting fed up with it now

Remember the oohs and aahs when Rolf Harris was first mentioned and his vigorous denials? Where indeed might it end? .

Exactly. There have been many allegations made about Cliff Richard over the years, some quite serious.
He says he knew about these , but chose to ignore them, rather than deny or sue anyone.

You wonder (as with Harris) if this might open the flood gates. You never know though, he could be completely innocent.
I wonder what the police thought they might find ? If there were any incriminating evidence, you would have expected that
to be long gone. Especially after the recent court cases.

And yet again, the accusee remains anonymous, yet the accused is publically named, even though as yet the accusation has not been proven.

Seems very unfair to me that on the basis of an as yet unproven accusation by an unnamed person the image of someone is quickly tainted. And for the press to get wind of the convoy of cars approaching the private estate suggests members of press were tipped off, otherwise how did they know where to wait….

And someone please tell that spokesperson from Yorkshire police that “Berkshire” is pronounced Barkshire – if the Police can’t even pronounce a county name properly then it makes you wonder what else they might get wrong….

You can’t help but wonder what conclusive “evidence” plods might expect to find so long after the event, as I doubt much exists in the way of digital evidence given the internet and home IT use was pretty much still in its infancy in those days, but I suppose they have found hard-copy evidence in other recent high-profile cases, so let’s wait and see what happens.

Hopefully with those guilty banged up and those innocent like Tarbuck and Davidson free to carry on their lives. Matthew Kelly went through it all a few years ago and he subsequently established his career as a talented and highly successful stage actor.
