Known down at the Beeb as The Octopus! A touch of 'Tall Poppy' syndrome perhaps? A lot of what has been said does not seem to stack up. Why come back 29 times? Why ask for 25K?

I worked with him on a few gigs, and also met him socially - the last time was in Sydney in the early 80s. I never saw any evidence of the behaviour described - unlike what I saw backstage at some rock and roll shows with some very well-known names. It's not evidence, I know, but it makes it hard to believe that he was some kind of monster.

I tend to agree with you Scorp, and of all the people in the frame after Yewtree he was the one that I thought was least likely to have done this.
Things that have come to light in the last couple of days are accusatios of behavior at events he never attended and in places he had never been to, indeed he was not even in the UK for some of them.
We will see.

I do hope he is proved innocent.

Lonneke Broadribb, Bindi's friend from primary school into their teens, said Mr Harris had never behaved inappropriately towards her or made her feel uncomfortable.
She said he would greet people with a "big cuddle or a kiss" but that it was affectionate; not sexual.

Not really surprising - he's been done for it before.
