Glad someone beat me to the "18/19-year-olds are adults, dumbass" argument.

A few years ago, The Sun's page three had a feature about their models having "It's their Sixteenth Birthday!! Wor", etcet.

Until someone pointed out that they must have had their photos done while they were still 15.

Gary Glitter has been charged with eight counts of sexual offences against girls.

The charges relate to two women who were aged between 12 and 14 at the time of the alleged offences between 1977 and 1980.

The former pop star - real name Paul Gadd - is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on 19 June.

The Crown Prosecution Service said no further action would be taken over five allegations made by two other people.

Baljit Ubhey, chief crown prosecutor for CPS London, said: "We have carefully considered the evidence gathered by the Metropolitan Police Service."

Mr Gadd, 70, was arrested on 28 October 2012.
Police material

Ms Ubhey said police had been "providing material to the CPS since July 2013, with the most recent material submitted in March 2014".

The charges relating to the first complainant, who was aged 12 or 13 at the time of the alleged offences, are:

Two counts of indecent assault between 31 January and 31 May 1977
One count of administering a drug or other thing in order to facilitate sexual intercourse between 31 January and 31 May 1977
One count of sexual intercourse with a girl under the age of 13 between 31 January and 31 May 1977
Two counts of indecent assault between 31 May and 31 December 1977

Charges relating to the second complainant, who was aged 13 or 14 at the time of the alleged offences, are two counts of indecent assault between 1 October 1979 and 31 December 1980.

The fifth grade concert band at my son's school played "The Hey Song" at their spring recital. As a non-sports watcher, my only mental association with this song is that it was written by this dude.

I've not seen this in a long time, but it seems to be doing the rounds today.

that’s... unfortunate

it's funny because he raped young people.

And "This is the age.. of the Train!"

Actually, there is an excellent documentary based around the Sex Pistols Christmas 1977 charity gig in Huddersfield. At one point they played that ad, and had inserted John doing the payoff line. Very deft, our Julian!

(as opposed to Savile, obv)

if only trump had been president in time to intervene. he’s into defending pedophiles and flexing his muscle around the world

(i hope my sarcasm here is apparent)

The trains I went on back then never looked anything like those Inter-City 125's on the Savile adverts, it was usually dilapidated old rolling stock from the 50's/60's.

Ah, it doesn't seem that long ago we could have re-filmed the on-train scenes from "Hard Day's Night" simply by getting on at Earley Station..
