jr suspended

[gina32]

for 12 weeks without pay, yeah like hes going to miss it

[andy-hughes]

As has been mentioned before -

JR's contract salary is used to fuind his production staff who make his shows, they will still have to be paid, so yes, he will loose money.

OK, not on the same scale as you or I laid off for twelve weeks, but it is more of a gesture than anything else.

I still think the appropriate 'executive' involved should be named, shamed, and fired.

[gina32]

i do believe he has resigned

[Mattk]

Totally agree. Pre-recorded show containing the 'f' word and available to all as a podcast download.

[gina32]

sorry "she" and it wasnt only the granddaughter he was rude about but also made suggestive remarks to andrew sachs

[Ethel]

Not being allowed to host this year's Royal Variety Show is going to hurt him more

[crisgal]

i know he's always loved films and wanted the barry norman job for years. If that's in jeapody then he may actually sit up, take notice and stop being so arrogant.

[Paul22118]

I wouldn't mind paying some production team if on �16000 a DAY!

[Scarlett]

I notice that both JR and Russell Brand have books out in WHSmith- hopeing to catch the Xmas crowds. Ha ha ha ha ha.

[gina32]

and he has pulled out of the comedy awards later this year

[Marvel-Man]

Come on ABers dont be so cruel, any chance of organising a whip round for Wossy, after all christmas is coming,

[Fat Bloke]

I think Wossy has got away with it he seems to be Fireproof.
If he worked in an office block and slagged off a workmate he would have been Fired. So how do the Beeb justify their decision to let him off the hook.?
