Doesn't get shown. The reruns of Top of the pops for example. They'd rather pull the whole episode rather than edit them outWhat did the BBC do with the backlog of Jimmy Savile TV shows, or Rolf Harris stuff?

Suspended sentence I should think. If they issue fines for this sort of offence a massive one but I’m not sure that they doHe’s sentenced tomorrow. Do we think he’ll get time in prison because of who he is or a rap on the knuckles

Yes if the man who distributed the images only received a 12 month suspended sentence, I cant see HE getting a custodial sentence.
There's almost zero chance of a custodial sentence. If one is given it'll be appealed.
There will be a lot of people screaming like hel about how it's proof that HE is "protected" or whatever, but in reality that isn't the case.
I actually think being free will be worse for him. He’d likely be with similar people in prison, or kept separately for his safety. Out here in the world everyone knows his face. There’s no where to hide.
That would be the sensible thing to do.I wonder if he’ll retreat to somewhere in rural Wales??
He won't be allowed to leave the country for however long he's on the sex offenders register, which will probably be 10 years.Rural Thailand more likely.
maybe a sex offender group.
With how expensive it is to actually keep people in jail, and how badly it works as a deterrent for crimes, I really am an advocate of it only being an option if the offender has a high chance of committing a new or repeat violent crime.
He's ruined his life. He's never going to be welcomed in public again, he'll constantly be known across the world as a disgusting pervert. He'll constantly look over his shoulder and live with the fear of vigilante hunters trying to 'serve justice' particularly if he doesn't get a prison sentence. And he'll have his electronic devices monitored for life.
As I don't see him being able to offend again, I don't see why the taxpayer should be keeping him housed in prison. I think he's a horrible, awful man and deserves to feel the full consequences of his actions... but I don't think prison is necessarily the only way.
