HolyMoly – Which TV presenter was once accused of a crime he insists he didn’t commit (A team music please). The problem was he DID commit it and immediately went to a tabloid doing a full on confession, along with the tears and shame and promise of retribution. They received £100,000 for the interview. Amazingly he got cleared of all charges, leaving him on hands and knees with the papers editor begging them to drop the story. They did, but only after he promised never to speak to another newspaper again. They have both kept their word to this day.
