    Jenkin was our John Peel.
    Certainly introduced me to a listening direction back in the RWP days.

    @Nepia I was shocked when I read that he had passed away. Ray Stevenson had supporting roles in a lot of movies/TV series that many of us would have watched.

    Don't Come The Raw Prawn, Or Shrimp, With Me - The Beast

    Don't Come The Raw Prawn, Or Shrimp, With Me - The Beast

    The expression “Don’t come the raw prawn with me” originated among the Australian services in World War II. It refers to an attempt to deceive someone or misrepresent a situation – basically, “Don’t try to put one over me”. While a raw prawn might be difficult to swallow, prawns have always been a...

    yup I heard the raw prawn expression round the tracks before as well. A classic.

    Cry stinking fish--thought it was British?!

    Yep, and a starring role in Rome.

    Just had a quick google of his crimes.

    Apparently he never showed any sort of remorse.

    Just another disgusting sex pest who used his power, fame and money to get what he wanted and probably thought he was untouchable. I’m glad he did some jail time at least.

    Also his songs and voice were fucken irritating.

    I won’t be trusting British Paints.

    You won’t be missed Rolf.

    The70s were like the Golden Age for sex predators in show business. Saville, Harris, Cosby, Glitter, lots more I am sure

    Absolutely. Rightly or wrongly I’m extremely mistrustful of pretty much any “family entertainer” of that era and I wonder what secrets they may be hiding.

    What about the 70's rock stars you like? Basically Jimmy Page didn't go to jail is because his music is considered cooler.

    Elvis? Wasn't Prescilla like 14? But it really seems to have been a serious fetish thing in the 70s. Actually there are some rather disturbing articles from that time attempting to normalise paedophilia.

    Yes a definite grey area for some of that era for sure. In the case of Elvis and Page it could be considered “consensual” ( but still fucked up )
