Television weatherman Fred Talbot has today been convicted of abusing schoolboys as young as 14 after he was exposed as an 'opportunistic sex offender' in his former career as a teacher. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...bot-guilty-sexually-abusing-teenage-boys.html Among the prosecution witnesses at the trial were The Stone Roses singer Ian Brown who said Talbot gave masturbation practice as homework. Brown said he remembered two or three biology lessons given by Talbot when he was an 11-year-old boy. The witness said: 'Very early at school, I would not have been there a long time, Mr Talbot asked all the class if any of us had ever masturbated. 'He went on to explain how to masturbate, how you should masturbate and the following lesson he asked who had masturbated.' Brown said Talbot also showed a gay porn film in another class. Well done Brownie.
Someone was telling me earlier that Talbot used to be in a relationship with Jimmy Corkhill from Brookside. Anyway, I was checking that on the ‘net and some, not exactly 100% reliable, websites confirmed this. Some of them also claimed that Talbot had been ‘seeing’ Elton Wellsby too.
Elton Wellsby!! kinell theres a name from the past. Ye i seem to remember the Jimmy Corkhill story. Cant stand him either.
He seemed to disappear when ITV lost the football rights from national TV. Although, saying that, I think he might have still presented local football stuff in the mid 90s in the Granada TV region. Can't remember exactly. Always thought he was a bit of a prick but a face of football as I was growing up.
I've just googled Elton and he has a lot to do with a childrens charity... He#s also got a beard now. Worrying.
Don't tell me you're one of those poor souls who think homosexuals and *****philes are the same thing, Chazz?
Glad to hear. What went wrong with Welsby. Say what you like, but the bloke always looked immaculate. A fine barnet he had too. Never a hair out of place.
As described by the incomparable Nigel Blackwell in A Country Practice as the almost illegal Elton Welsby, dressed as a French maid on a moonless byway, licking his lips as he creeps ever closer. Fast falls the eventide.
