I knew Liz [Liz Kershaw] - in fact I worked with her before she joined the station, making a BT chart rundown telephone service every week. And I was also around when she joined the station. I don't know which of the schoolboys stuck his hands where they shouldn't be. And, frankly, I don't know why Liz can't name him. But if this "trick" happened, it was a specific case. In her R4 Today interview she goes on to imply that it was a more general practice. It wasn't. I simply don't recognise the culture she describes. R1 was staffed by (mainly) fun people from both sexes (if that matters) and what went on was no different to any other institution or workplace. Show less «
