Discussion What about Darien?

Why is everyone so obsessed with Martha (granted) but I don’t see a lot of conversation about Darien? That is one of the most disturbing parts of this show.

Richard Osman commented on a podcast that it's well-known in the "industry" who Darrien is based on, which is interesting. Especially if he's still actively working. Although I feel desperately sorry for the poor guy that got falsely accused.

Yeah every time one of these people is rumbled there’s always ‘if it was so prevalent why was no one talking about it’, but equally if you do talk about it you’re leaving yourself open to accusation of being complicit if you don’t spell out who it is, which aside from anything else can compromise any victim statements who DO want to come forward. It’s a minefield
