Probably he was gay, which was illegal in England until 1967, but though illegal in Sri Lanka the law was never enforced. A good reason to emigrate in 1956.

Also a great place for diving:
In 1955, Arthur C. Clarke was stuck in Sri Lanka on his way to the Great Barrier Reef in Australia with his partner Mike Wilson. And he stopped over here for a couple of days, and he found out he liked this country very much but he still went on with his trip to Australia. Then he decided that this is the country that they should live in, and they started a diving company...
So, you were saying...”

Apologies to Mr Clarke's family, I was not aware that he'd been cleared of all charges.

I'm pretty certain that Dermot O'Leary has experimented!

Colin Jackson, init?

Read somewhere a few years ago he was in a long term relationship with swimmer Mark Foster. No idea if it was true, or if they are still together.

I wonder which celebs are in the closet gays? I cant think of anybody.”

The first one on her spoiler list was spot on.

And lol at Chace Crawford waffling on about how Liz Hurley was the 'ideal woman' on the DM yesterday.

Classic closet tactic.

I don't think you'll ever see him confirm anything one way or the other (he'd probably think it awfully crass and common to mention something like sexuality in public) but let's just say I'd put a lot of money on him being gay. And he's bloody handsome with it.

So many of these terms have been blurred down through the ages and still you get people who think transexuals are the same as gay men and gay men are really women in disguise, etc. So I do think some of these stories came about because of misunderstanding and disgust/fear.

Then you'd get the sort of Daily Mail 'concerned from Harrow' types who'd get stressed out specifically over two gay men adopting a female child (the reason behind their fear I can only assume being two gay men would somehow be predatory towards a female child/baby, go figure...)

On another note, nice to read Russell Grant has been with his partner for such a long time. I guess it was in the stars... ”

Clarke demanded a retraction after the Mirror accused him of paederasty and they printed an apology.

Whenever he was asked if he was gay he replied, 'No, merely mildly cheerful.'

I'm thinking Matt Damon might be bisexual/bicurious, due to this interview. First the joking about going to gay bars with Leonardo DiCaprio at 2:10, and then the joking about having sex with him at 4:08.

Straight men joke about having sex with their chums too.

In the closet? I thought he was open about being gay.

You must remember it was the Sri Lankan police who cleared him though and if they were turning a blind eye to paedophilia then they were hardly likely to convict him as it would put them in a bad light.

He's not worked on TV or film for years though, his website is quite embarrassing http://www.jonathonm.co.uk/

On another point I didn't realise that Gilly Coleman who played the second Aveline Boswell died in 2010 either, just came across it while I was trying to remember Jonathon's name, she was only 56”

Well he did used to date Anthea Turner who seems to be no stranger to being a beard so quite possibly. I also remember him making any excuse to lay his hands on Philip Olivier when he was in the Games (not that I can blame him)

Anyone know the story on John Mahony (Martin Crane)? I've heard various rumours but nothing from the horse's mouth?

Susan Tully? She always pinged for me but I'm out of the loop so perhaps she is out already.

Saw Reggie on Saturday Kitchen today, it did cross my mind that he might be. It's the first time I've noticed how attractive he is.

Although this is nothing to do with gay presenters/actors/musicians etc, I would like to say I've just watched Stephen King's Salem's Lot (original 1979 TV version) and it seems very clear that Ben Mears (David Soul's character) is bisexual. He has a heterosexual relationship, however there is a teenager called Mark who clearly fancies the pants off him as he keeps looking at him for no apparent reason. They only meet properly together close to the end of Part 2. I think the subtext here is that they become lovers afterwards. They travel together after the events and even Mears gives hiim an affectionate twist of his shoulder before he kills his ex-lover who is a vampire.

Just thought I'd put that out there...
