Not All Men, But Definitely Some Men! Time Up for Brand and Walliams?

From The ClearOut · 1:12:36

Show by Dara Clear

In this episode Dara shares some thoughts on the sentencing of Russell Brand and the allegations against David Walliams. Are these just cases of powerful men acting with impunity, or is there more to it than that? The spectre of male impropriety has also been raised in relation to David Harbour - what makes that so different from Brand and Walliams? And what is the process by which we give ourselves permission to act badly?Happily moving on from such grim terrain, Dara marks the passing of the utterly brilliant football and music man, Danny Kelly, with whom he shared a love of Tottenham Hotspur football club. Kelly was an extraordinary broadcaster with an exceptional ability to communicate his passion and good humour about all things Spurs.Finally, Dara considers four very particular cinema experiences he had in the 80s. Apart from starring big leading men of the day, what else makes them so significant? His father brought him to all of them.
