What makes this sickening is that he gets a suspended 2 year sentence, yet people who said 'nasty' things online towards illegal immigrants have been given 2 year full sentences.🤬 I bet plays the victim now,and gets another gig on the BBC. Now he has been convicted, shouldn't he now be fired? I can't remember reading that he has been. Don't be ridiculous It is ridiculous, as it's true. So it's fine for someone to be locked up for two years for saying spiteful things online about real issues addressing our country involving immigrants... but a pedophile is given a suspended sentence due to his fame even though he brought/ traded images of children in order to self pleasure himself over!!! It's disgusting! |

It's disgusting! I'm taking of course about your view that the BBC will now re-employ him. You're actually trying to accuse the BBC of future failures which will categorically not happen. It's ridiculous to suggest he will ever be on screen again in a paid role. |

Wow, Really ?..Tim Davie says he can’t see Edwards working at BBC again..by Noor Nanji, Culture reporter“This man has just been convicted of appalling crimes and it’s pretty straightforward in my mind, I can’t see him working here again,” he told BBC presenter Amol Rajan, at the Royal Television Society London Convention. Mr Davie said "for obvious reasons," the former presenter was unlikely to come back to the organsation. www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2477kp0epo

It's a disgrace that this f**ker was let off due to his mental health! I've stated on here before that my father committed suicide in 2009, after suffering from depression for years. Post his death I suffered from major depression on and off for several years, luckly I'm ok now and never got to the point of wanting to take my life,but it's a horrible illness,so this is a subject very...very close to my heart. This man playing the victim ,and mental health card is a disgrace. Anyone on here that did the same in his situation would have been banged up. Don't get me wrong, this **** is mentally unwell, he is a sick f**ker for getting off to children.But he is not mentally unwell for the reasons that he was left off for! The system is a disgrace! |

For once I pretty much agree with you. To use depression as an excuse is disgraceful. His arteriolosclerosis was even mentioned as a mitigating factor. Shameless, but child abusers use any and every excuse they can. |

Thank you, we may not agree on politics, but there is no excuse for this perverts actions, or the ridiculous outcome by our failed law system..and I'm glad that we can agree on that.đź‘Ť |

Whilst I don't agree with you on capital punishment, which I think you are hinting at [forgive me if wrong], but I find it annoying as hell when they have expensive barristers who reel out the same lame excuses. A sex offender in social housing is no different to a sex offender in upper class London, just the cost of a decent barrister!! |

I did find it quite amusing, watching Edwards and his barrister making their way out of the courthouse, following his trial.
As they walked towards his waiting car, Edwards attempted to engage her in conversation, turning his head to look at her as he did, but she stared resolutely ahead, and didn`t appear to respond to him.
She may have made enough wonga to add to her property portfolio in Islington, but she looked to me like she regarded him with the same sense of disgust as the rest of us.

The BBC has been criticised for including disgraced presenter Huw Edwards in a flagship documentary series...by Chris Hastingsi.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/09/22/01/89954953-13877807-image-a-1_1726965407780.jpgThe 63-year-old's voice can clearly be heard in a new three-part documentary series which charts the life of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. It comes after director general Tim Davie said it was unlikely that archive BBC footage featuring Edwards would be used in future, although he ruled out a blanket ban. Episode two of The Zelensky Story, which charts events leading up to the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, highlights Russia's claims to territory, including the regions of Donetsk and Luhansk. It features an audio clip of Edwards reading the news and saying: 'The two regions in question are Donetsk and Luhansk and diplomats warn that recognising these as independent states would give Russia the justification it wants to send in troops.' The clip's inclusion in the BBC2 series has raised eyebrows within the corporation. One insider said: 'It's baffling how this slipped through the net.

His human rights are gone in my opinion, besmirch, insult, and hammer his reputation as much as you can. I encourage any damage to his character, apart from any physical violence to him via any avenue. Pedophiles are the worst of the worst! |

I watched a rerun of the old series 'Life on Mars' and there was an episode where Jimmy Saville was on the television in the background. To edit it out would have changed the whole dynamic of the episode but bizarrely it felt uncomfortable hearing him. |

In Professional Wrestling, an EX big time pro Wrestler called Chris Benoit killed himself and his son and wife in Atlanta Georgia in 2007 in a Murder suicide. ( I was in Atlanta at that time,only 3 miles away 🥺).. The WWE, and the wrestling world completely wiped his history off their record books,and rightfully so. In fact, the man that did that - the founder, and former owner of the WWE before his sold the company for 6/8 Billion..Vince McMahon, has sexual abuse charges going on against him, and the new owners of the WWE has now completely erased McMahon from its WWE programming, and from its history due to it. So it can happen. |

BBC's Huw Edwards 'puts ÂŁ4.75m home up for sale' after career ends in disgrace..By Victoria Johns & Lauren Haughey, Lifestyle and Money Reporters
The former BBC News at Ten presenter was given a suspended jail sentence last month after pleading guilty to three counts of making indecent images of childreni2-prod.bristolpost.co.uk/incoming/article9618291.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/0_BRITAIN-MEDIA-TELEVISION-BBC-POLICE-CRIME.jpgHuw Edwards has reportedly put his family's ÂŁ4.75 million London home on the market. The former BBC newsreader, 63, was handed a six-month suspended sentence in September after he pleaded guilty to making indecent images of children. Edwards, who resigned from his lucrative ÂŁ475,000 BBC role in April following medical advice, vacated the family home he shared with wife Vicky Flind and their five children when the scandal emerged. Now, the south London property is believed to be up for sale. Huw and Vicky purchased the grand residence for ÂŁ1.85m in 2006, according to MailOnline. The publication claims it is listed on rightmove. The paper says it has six bedrooms and is on three floors. The Mirror says it has a pool table and a piano, as well as an expansive garden complete with a trampoline. The news comes less than a month after the once revered Welsh journalist was given a suspended jail sentence. Edwards appeared at Westminster Magistrates Court in September for sentencing after he pleaded guilty to three counts of making indecent images of children in July. The disgraced presenter was given six months imprisonment, suspended for two years, with a requirement to complete a sex offender programme. Chief Magistrate Paul Goldspring also declined to make him the subject of a Sexual Harm Prevention Order, saying he "did not pose a risk to the public". He said, however, that Edwards would be on the Sexual Offenders' Register for seven years. Mr Goldspring told the ex-News at Ten presenter: "The impact of child sexual abuse can be severe and lifelong." He then told Edwards his "reputation is in tatters," while starting his sentencing remarks. Mr Goldspring said: "Perhaps it does not need saying that you are of previous good character having enjoyed a very successful career in the media You were highly regarded for your dedication and professionalism, perhaps the most recognised journalist in the UK. Your reputation is in tatters." The Mirror has contacted Mr Edwards' rep for comment on this story.
