/// But police never questioned the celebrity and he has not given evidence at Ben’s inquest, where the coroner agreed his identity should be protected. ///

Will this lead to a guessing game in which all TV comedians are liable to come under suspicion?

I know ummmm, but in my case it should have been around 30!

As per usual - Digital Spy Forum has named Mr X.

That is so so wrong.

What's wrong? Naming him on DS, or the authorities not naming him?
Or the fact it was him?

What's the point of criticising a site for naming him and in the same breath telling us where it was so we can go and gawp at their blabbering ourselves if we want?

sir prize has got this one - down here it was reported that the basis of the agreement was that there was also nothing in the correspondence between the two that ever covered death/suicide or anything untoward. There, I agree, naming him is a step too far.

Jim360 - you will note that I started my comment with the words ''As per usual'' - the reason being that Digital Spy often defies court orders or police directives. My comment was reporting that DS has done it 'again'. Whether you have time to go gawping is your business.

[ummmm]

Isn't Sir.p saying that as bad as '-answer removed-' linking to a certain persons Twitter account?
