Indeed. The link between art techniques and sex crimes is well documented.

He admits to having sex with the daughter's friend and even wrote a partial confession to her dad when he realised she'd been scared of him, but said it wasn't when she was 13 - 19, as she says, it was when she was legal and it was consenting.


Horrible to think he's a nonce, but it looks like he was/is.

Agree.


I vaguely remember watching his TV programmes as a child where he did some amazing paintings, but only began liking him as a presenter when he started doing 'Animal Hospital'. He came across as being so compassionate and caring. Also when presenting the more recent 'Rolf's animal clinic'.


As an animal lover myself, I admired him for his dedication. It was as if it really meant something to him other than just fronting a TV show.


Really hope it's all a mistake but not very likely judging by what has been written in the press.

Actually, the letter isn't at all incriminating as the papers are making it out to be. It admits an affair, but reiterates that she was of age at the time. The Gruiniad published it in full here...

How did Rolf and co get away with it? I think Roald Dahl summed it up in Matilda.


?How can she get away with it?? Lavender said to Matilda. ?Surely the children go home and tell their mothers and fathers. I know my father would raise a terrific stink if I told him the Headmistress had grabbed me by the hair and slung me over the playground fence.?


?No he wouldn?t,? Matilda said, ?and I?ll tell you why. He simply wouldn?t believe you.?


?Of course he would.?


?He wouldn?t,? Matilda said. ?And the reason is obvious. Your story would sound too ridiculous to be believed. And that is the Trunchbull?s great secret? Never do anything by halves if you want to get away with it. Be outrageous. Go the whole hog. Make sure everything you do is so completely crazy it?s unbelievable. No parent is going to believe this pigtail story, not in a million years. Mine wouldn?t. They?d call me a liar.?

      Council "weed" removal

      I have no agenda just a simple response expressing my thoughts and experience.

      Council "weed" removal

      By Sue · Posted

      Just as one example, the grass in a least some of  the tree pits in Ulverscroft Road appears to have been sprayed. If it's not the council who has done it, then I wonder if someone is trying to kill the trees 😭 although I doubt if that would work, as the council have sprayed tree pits in the past (ignoring handwritten notices by my then very young grandchildren asking them not to spray as they had sowed flower seeds there) 🤬 Grass in the pavement nearby appears to have been neither sprayed nor scraped out. I'm quite confused.

      They aren't. They are removing them manually, scraping and cutting them out. I've seen them doing it on my road and surrounding roads. I can't imagine that they would have different methods in different parts of East Dulwich.

      Poundland East Dulwich soon to be replaced by Tesco Express

      By Insuflo · Posted

      I see. But as I read it, Tesco would still need the agreement of the owners/ leaseholder to submit proposals, so would need Poundland’s cooperation? I suppose we’ll have to wait while this plays out. There’s applications re this site on the Southwark planning portal dating back over 70 years. In 1954, Woolworth’s applied to convert the original 4 shops here (Nos 29-35) into one Woolies but the council refused because the flats above the shops would be lost and there was a local housing shortage following the war. Small businesses being displaced by big chains on Lordship Lane was already a trend back then.
