White Heat

The numbers... That's a hell of a lot of crazy.

WHAT?!

So the Dunblane thing; There was an inquiry into the massacre (The Cullen Inquiry) during which evidence of Thomas Hamiton's previous interactions with the police was presented but the information was sealed, under a closure order to prevent publication for 100 years. So nobody knows just how much the police already knew about him before he went & murdered a bunch of innocent kids. I believe since the initial inquiry one of piece of information has been released about him being arrested for assault, obstructing police & contravention of the Children and Young Persons Act 1937. He was released without charge. For years there has been speculation that there is some kind of cover up. There is much more to it but that is the main thing that make people question the story that has been told. Epstein's book had all sorts of people in it, some of them probably completely unaware of what he was/is but there certainly must be a lot who were aware & complicit. I do wonder about Ghislaine Maxwell. The blinds are probably right, I see no other reason why she wouldn't have been thrown under the bus yet. It will drag on. Sadly, I really don't see anything changing any time soon.

His "good" connections & lawyers were/are just as sick as he was. These kinds of "people" tend to stick together, that's why you can't even find out where Sidney Cooke is. It's also probably why the records about the Dunblane massacre were sealed for 100 years & why nobody really talks about Vishal Mehrotra or Martin Allen much. Did the other well know celebrity like a vest to the Elm Guest House by any chance? The fact that Andrew is getting a fair bit of press tells me there must be something bigger that we are being distracted from. I know Meghan is not like Diana as a person, but it seems like the people who used Diana are using now Meghan in a similar way.

The show is called "The Royals".

The boy was escaping from Buckingham Palace but it was for a TV show. Yes, Jimmy Savile was knighted & he was only outed for what he really was after his death. My guess is he knew enough about other people to be protected by them.

They are treating her in a similar way to how they treated Princes Diana a lot of the time & honestly, I think other members of the royal family are happy to let that happen because it is a very effective distraction from all of the vile things some of them get up to. There was a guy over here who did a couple of interviews a few years back about abuse he had suffered as a child, he did one interview with The Express newspaper where his name & face was shown (https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/453381/Female-MP-abused-boy-in-care) & then later did another with BBC Panorama (where his identity was "hidden"). Since those interviews were released to the public, video footage has emerged of him naming people that neither The Express or Panorama included in their reports, he also insinuates that a member of the royal family was involved in some of the abuse. There is also footage showing him being coached & coerced into lying & including details that would discredit his own claims. I've heard this has happened to other people too. So yes, they have know for years & it seems highly likely that they have been covering up for him for a long time.

It's pretty much the same in the UK, they'll most likely report on Andrew for the next couple of days & then it'll be back to the Meghan bashing.

This!

I loved this mini-doc. Like everyone else, I wish it was longer. I’ve always enjoyed “behind the music” type things, where we get to hear about what inspired the songs.

His name is Nicolas Huchard I loved that part too. I hope she keeps it for the tour.

By idiots. I've been reading the comments on there & every single negative one was written by a halfwit. Exactly. I'm sure Ian McKellan can handle a bit of banter. He seemed alright. My guess is that she agreed to do it last min because Graham Norton was doing the Q&A.

It was on iTunes in the UK before it was on Youtube & on iTunes in some other countries before that. New Zealand got it first I think.

Sounds like it’s them.

I’ve asked her loads of questions, I think the point is really to get people using the hashtag more but I hope some of the good questions get answered.

Love the video. Even if it did make me think my screen had a dead pixel for a split second.

100%

I completely agree. It actually made me look forward to this theatre tour a bit more. The interlude was perfectly executed. This was nowhere near as bad as that, calm down. Yep.

I was gonna say....

It would be really nice to come here & see people discussing the theatrical side of the performance. I think we have mostly agreed that the LAP section could have been better & that it's difficult to walk down stairs in time, sideways, while wearing an eye patch & a long, heavy costume. Especially when you're supposed to be singing & (likely) having technical problems. I know, I know "she shouldn't have worn the eye patch then" but maybe it's part of the message of this album, maybe it fits & we just haven't been told why yet.

Good.

I think LAP sounded a bit off key & that particular arrangement is my least favourite. The rest of the performance I liked. However, I really do think she needs a proper band behind her. Especially with the new album.

Was it the first Jonathan Ross interview?
