The casting staff of Coronation Street must be worried about some of their male leads now with two of them now "off air" whilst matters are being investigated.

Something tells me it won't affect the programme's quality :roll:

But if he hadn't confessed he may have escaped punishment.

Good article in The Independent today by Brian Viner on "tv in the 70's" which Hall was at the forefront of with It's a Knock Out, Look North and Grandstand.

Viner was disappointed so many icons of this era on TV have turned out to be somewhat tarnished.



We'll never know what would have happened if Hall had continued to deny it but I suspect he realised the evidence against him was overwhelming. I wouldn't be suprised if he escapes jail because of his age.

An MP has just been arrested (not under Operation Yewtree I don't think though) for rape.
