What we know:

Well loved

Has been suspended

Is paid £35,000

Male

Surely we can figure it out?

EDIT:

The allegations, first reported by the Sun on Friday, are that the BBC presenter paid £35,000 for explicit photos over a three-year period, starting when the teenager was 17

Sorry, misunderstood this part. Maybe we cannot figure it out

    It’s kind of why it’s the perfect stick to beat them with - they can’t win. The Sun newsroom must be really quite pleased with itself, which is never a good sign.

    We’ll have to wait and see what comes out of this - serious questions need to be asked if the family didn’t give the BBC evidence at the time (of something that could be a child sex offence) but waited months and told The Sun (although they say they haven’t received payment). Something isn’t quite right with the stories emerging but it will take a while for the truth to shake out.
