I mean that’s picking perhaps the most extreme outlier example you could, and again, one where the vulnerable were clearly not being protected.
In general I’m not sure any celeb relationships provide useful relatable examples for these kind of discussions.

One day they’ll create a formula to determine what is and what isn’t an acceptable relationship. Something like {Age/2 + 7} / Income Squared.

My old GP who is also a family friend had his wife die of cancer, and he’s remarried with a woman about 30 years younger (60s and 30s).
And it’s honestly just cute. He’s not wealthy. She’s not glamorous. They’re just two lonely people that have connected and found love.
Again I think the celeb lens on this skews it all a bit. In the real world it’s not all soap opera story lines. It’s just people living their lives and ‘whatever works’ is not a bad philosophy to live by.

It’s a consent thing at the end of the day- if two people consent to a relationship, however unequal age-wise, power-wise etc, then it’s none of our business. Sure, Pacino could be shagging his granddaughter but she might genuinely have a thing for wrinkly ballsacks, or she might just have calculated he doesn’t have that long and she’s going to be set for life out of it, either way, if both are consenting freely then it’s none of our business as far as I’m concerned.
There’s a huge area where people are vulnerable or malleable in various ways and the consent is much less clear, but, fuck, that applies to life across the board with lifestyle, work, whatever.

Is she going for an award? Feels very forced. Even comes off like they are saying the audience was covering it up all these years.

Apparently Ukraine halted their offensive and had an unofficial ceasefire to watch, the Russian troops gathered round to watch it live on the Ukrainian phones (they get better mobile signal).

Its very much grandma level tittle tattle now but has somehow entranced the entire country. The level of our national discourse currently stands at '85 year old woman who watches ITV daytime from 6.30am until 1.30pm every day unless there are too many black people on loose women'.

We'll all be vary sad if he has a breakdown but we won't know if we're to blame or if it's ITV or if we're glad because he groomed someone.

I think this Scofield stuff is a bit of an overreaction. Unless/till something more salacious and concrete comes out, unapologetically branding the bloke a nonce is bullshit.

Is it too early to suggest a new metric, a “Schofield Scale” of hotness for nubile interns?

Just been reading on one of the guys from the new Full Monty being booted for "inappropriate behaviour".
Kinda murky details but seems he was naked in his trailer and young runners thought it was inappropriate.
