According to the news reports I've read, he asked for a sensitivity reader and that didn't happen, and his publisher are taking the blame for that.
Why do people insist on writing stuff they know nothing about in the first place? I wouldn’t write a book about being a young gay man in the Deep South, for example, it would be utterly ridiculous. He’s a cock.
 
If that story is true and it really was LJC that's really bizarre behaviour.
Jack minesweeping drinks at the bar is one thing but taking someone's award is really uncivilised and 🦇 💩.

?

bleeping hell between this week’s revelations about THAT MAN and she LEFT, guest’s having the absolute bestest time since that nanosecond right before she hit publish on Hungriest Hurtiest 2022.

I always assumed LJC was with guest because she's a bit dowdy and plain and succumbed to the cluster-b lovebombing, but maybe she's just a big bleeping weirdo aswell. She always looked like a sad dinner lady* to me.

You don't get to her position by being daft, I suppose.

I can't fathom walking out with someone else's belongings unless it was a genuine accident though, and I try not to attribute to malice what can be put down to accident or stupidity, but then again, I'm not insane.

*No shade to dinner ladies, my late mum was the quintessential lovely dinner lady.
 
She proceeds to number her responses; but doesn’t answer the question until number four. This whole article could have been one sentence!

“To answer Mr Farrington’s questions in turn, as the only person who reasonably can:

1. ‘How can blogger call herself Dr?’ I am a twice-published author with a best selling book. I am a campaigner for Oxfam and the Trussell Trust and have raised over £50,000 for Street Child United, the Trussell Trust, the YMCA, Stonewall, The Food Chain and Oxfam through various fundraisers, mostly involving me starving myself for a week for charity, sleeping on a cardboard box on the floor of a car park, or catering large and complex events free of charge. I am an ambassador for Oxfam and a patron of The Food Chain. I am a mother. I am a journalist. I am a campaigner, forcing a debate on food banks in the House of Commons by getting 140,000 signatures on a petition in a matter of days, and travelling to Tanzania to interview female farmers in the rice fields of Morogoro. I have attended the G8 summit, spoken at Conservative Party conference, and Labour, and the Greens, and the Peoples Assembly. I have been on BBC Question Time. I have cooked dinner for Claudia Roden, Mary Portas, Clare Balding, Sue Perkins and dessert for Bill Nighy (but not all at once). I do write a blog, yes, but it is a fraction of what I do.”

what has this got to do with the question? 0/1 guest

I totally agree!!
🤣 lol, hold on a second…

Deceased. Sophie’s Grandma Denise.
In case of international knowledge gaps - Sophie grew up in care, and with her Gran. Her mum had drug addiction and mental health problems. Sophie was a sex worker for a time and also discovered acting, she has written and starred in her own sitcom (originally was a play) loosely based on her 20s called Alma’s Not Normal. Her Gran (Denise) died recently after the first series, hence she had an emotional speech dedicated to her,when she won a BAFTA. Then apparently LJC tried to swipe her award. sounds like it might have been a snowy night ❄
 
It’s a frankly bizarre choice of subject matter for a middle aged white bloke from Essex. Unfortunate he’s touring australia at the moment too.

Bet guest is loving it. She’s the queen of schadenfreude
I’m in South Africa and JO having to withdraw the book made SABC headlines here of all places. Like there’s nothing else going on in the world.

If she wasn’t like it before, she certainly learned from the best.

LOOK AT ALL THE GRUELLING GOOD I DO, everyone on the internet! THO I AM SEVERELY ILL IN MY WORK BED NEST!

I totally agree!!
Dessert for Bill Nighy omfg! How utterly desperate. How to emphasise you’re totally star struck - as if a proper famous chef would ever list in course detail who they’ve cooked for. This is all an eye opener to me as I only started reading here in 2022.
 
I bet she now wishes she'd said yes to Strictly all those times they asked her (joking of course Jack, we know they never asked you). Although I would love to see her on there. You know she would be all "completed it, mate" to whichever poor pro she was paired with, she did study over 18 months of ballet with Madame Linda who had a studio above a charity shop on Southend high street.
I don't think I could stand her trying to lovebomb whichever poor bugger was stuck with her, and doing a self-humiliating "Matt of the Forearms" self-strike again - tweeting to say what a cheeky li'l couple they made, and thanking their other half (of whatever sex) for lending them out, and similar mortifying tit.

My telly would be through the window.
 
I've been looking at the 2022 BAFTA awards and can't see LJC mentioned by name although she could be under one of the "Production Team" nominees. If so, it makes her swiping someone else's BAFTA even more bizarre.
At this point can’t wait to see what’s next.

Allegra Sarah Bazzett McEvedy (MBE) has faked her own identity for the past 30 years, which is only discovered when she punches an orphan?

Old Harold was running guns to Dordrecht?
