TV weatherman Fred Talbot rearrested in abuse probe

[BigBird]

I didn't know he had already been arrested once before. Getting to a point where it will be easier to compile a list of celebs that have not been arrested for sexual abuse claims. (">


TV weather presenter Fred Talbot has been rearrested by police investigating allegations of historical child sex abuse at a school.
Officers are examining claims of abuse at Altrincham Grammar School for Boys in the 1970s and 80s. The 63-year-old former teacher has been arrested on suspicion of indecent assaults on five former pupils. He was also arrested on suspicion of indecent assault in relation to an alleged offence in north east England. He remains on bail over a previous count of indecent assault.

Police said no further action had been taken in relation to previous allegations of two counts of indecent assault and four counts of inciting a child to commit acts of gross indecency.Mr Talbot remains in police custody for questioning. He is best known for his work on the ITV programme This Morning in the late 80s and 90s when it was hosted by Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan.

He was also the weatherman on ITV's Granada Reports but has not appeared on the show since the claims emerged.

It's not so much a sex offenders register more like a copy of the Radio Times from the 70's or 80's.

well with the amount of these cnuts they seem to find we should be free from TV repeat programming from the 60s onwards as they all seem to be wankers

Maybe the whole thing is a setup by an ambitious light entertainer to take over the schedules?

Its too much like Richy Rich's rise to fame in 'Filthy, Rich and Catflap' to be a coincidence

Those white beards are a dead giveaway on most of the fiddlers. How did Pete Townsend get away with it!!??

Oh yeah, for research.
