Sorry Godot your cleverness was disguise by the ?s I'm angry tonight, don't know why just ignore me i'll probably be moaning about foreigners next coming over here holding up out economy.
Langham, can we forgive him? Page 2
Grrrrrrr Why did the chicken cross the road? Cos he wanted to, stop hasseling the f**king chicken, are you the f**king chicken police. You gas their kids, eat their legs and southerners cremate them in spices but they can't cross the road without being questioned. They're not f**king Jean Charles De Menezes give them a f**king break. Christ!
That felt good, hope the BSG swear filter is on
I can forgive him. Unfortunately, crimes involving children is the one crime you can't come back from. He'd have been better off killing somebody in a street brawl, or drowning a gay in his pool, then he'd still probably be able to make a come back.
Whether or not the viewers forgive him, I think that's it for Langham's career now.
The second series of Help is dead in the water because of its associations with the trial; Iannucci only wanted him back in The Thick Of It if he was cleared of all charges and who in the BBC is going to dare to be the one to give him a new commission? Too controversial.
That is of course assuming he avoids jail. He could still be locked up.
Anyway the website lawyers are looking sweaty now and making rather vivid hand signals at me so I better shut up now.
(We obviously don't actually have lawyers but if we did I'm sure they'd be worried about where this thread is heading)

You mean they aren't? she-e-it!
His acting career is most likely over, but I reckon he'll still work within the TV industry and probably still write. It's a great shame to lose someone of his talent though.
What he did was wrong on so many levels and he had no excuse of looking at the pictures or downloading them for that matter. For that he deserves to be punished.
But to be honest it pisses me off just as much when people start getting to that "hang them all" stuff or "I hope he gets raped in prison", which I've seen on other forums. I mean that makes you just as dark and twisted inside as he may be.
Big Brother will probably have him... they had Barrymore...
I think downloading child porn and looking at it is enough for us to say he should be chemically castrated and jailed, although I wouldn't think capital punishment is in order. Chemical castration and 20 years hard labour at a recycling plant, not of his choice, and public villification sounds about right!
Nobody downloads child porn for research purposes! Get real people!
The jury have made the best decision they could have in the circumstances under the current far-too-liberal laws of the land!
On the other hand maybe he could take over presenting "Children in need"...
or 'Kids say the funniest things'.

I did threes years of law *rolls eyes* and in my opinion its perfectly fine to say the Chris Langham is a ***** ******* *** ****** ****** ** *** ****** with a banana.
Quote: Godot Taxis @ August 2, 2007, 11:32 PMIt's strange that the jury can look at the images but not go to prison, though, isn't it? Or is it?
Please tell me that was a joke. I don't always know with you Godot.
Nice idea for a sketch .... they keep having to recruit new jurors as the original ones keep getting arrested for looking at the evidence...
If 'The Met' are involved, it could happen...

Life of Brian's Jehovah sketch springs to mind
Langham, Can we forgive him? I'd have his nuts in a blender.
He provided a demand for something they shouldn't be supplying. Thus making it worth the people providing more in the future.
