of the Jonathan variety. Who would have thought he was a filthy kiddy fiddler? A nice stretch with Mr Big should hammer home the point...perhaps with a hammer, which would be nice

Sorry Mac, never liked him, as a bloke or a singer/producer. I remember seeing him for the first time on Juke Box Jury - thought he looked shifty then. I knew I'd be proven right eventually. Mind you, I could fill a book with blokes I'm patiently waiting to be proven right about, so the odds are I'll hit the target occassionally.

Being in Australia I have no idea what fate has befallen Jonathon King, but am I the only one who wouldn't have been in the least bit surprised if he turned out to be a kiddy fiddler?

Bit unfair on Barrymore to compare him with King. Inviting some likeminded individuals back to your gaff for an impromptu party is a bit different to messing with children, even if one of those likeminded individuals ends up face down in the pool. I wonder if there'd have been the same publicity if the poor sod (sic) was hetro.

ADK - from Sky News

"Pop mogul Jonathan King is beginning a seven-year jail term after being found guilty of molesting schoolboys.The shamed millionaire used his fame and fortune to lure the boys to his luxurious mansion where he indecently assaulted them.

Detectives believe he could have preyed on more than 100 young boys during four decades of abuse.

King, 56, of Queensborough Studios, Bayswater, London, denied six charges relating to assaults on five boys.

Judge David Paget said: "This was a serious breach of trust. You used your fame and success to attract adolescent and impressionable boys.

"You then abused the trust they and their parents placed in you."

He was convicted in September but reporting restrictions were only lifted after the prosecution said it would not be proceeding with two further trials on similar charges.

The Old Bailey was told the former singer used his money and celebrity status to seduce the teenagers, taking them back to his home to watch pornographic videos.

Some of the victims, now in their 30s, were molested once. Others were attacked several times. King would give his victims presents after the assaults - or a lift home in his plush Mercedes car.

King, who had been remanded to Belmarsh prison since September, had been questioned about assaults on boys from the 1960s to the 1990s.

September's trial could not be reported because King faced three other trials for similar offences.

The second trial alleging he committed serious sexual offences against two boys in the 1970s collapsed on Tuesday. Police and prosecutor agreed not to go ahead with the third case.

In all, King had been due to face 15 charges against 12 victims. He was ordered to be placed on the Sex Offenders' Register and was banned from working with children."

Is Belmarsh the prison just for famous people, Archer could write the book and King then pen the musical version for a new modern classic "Arrogance misplaced"

The TV coverage I've seen never once showed the smirking git looking remotely bothered.

With a bit of luck Jonathan King will terminally roger Geoffrey Archer and expire in unbridled ecstacy during their extended sojourn in Belmarsh. This would mean we would never again be subjected to any more books or records from these two prize tossers!

Cheers Bobby - scary stuff. Suspect he'll get his just desserts in prison though, they'll be queueing up for him.

Is Jonathan Aitken still in? Or did he lie his way out, like he tried to do in court?
