Of course, what people are failing to realise is Mr Talbot was also a fairly young man at the time - but is being tried as 'a dirty old man' 40 years later. Sounds to me like he acted with a bit too much "gay abandon" - reckless is not the word, especially for the less tolerant times. But should a hapless young buffoon be branded a 'predator' in his old age?
He already has a 'criminal record' though

Reminds of the porno movie shown in Taxi Driver.

Ah now that is fascinating Chris; please try to find out more. I think I saw Ian Brown shopping in Whiteleys when I was there to watch the Theory of Everything last Saturday.

Apparently there was a lot said by Mr Brown that "couldn't be reported" - chiefly that he also tore into the prosecution too and questioned what it was really all about and why they had subpoena'd him, someone classed a 'celebrity', to give evidence when he wasn't part of any of the allegations
