.. and where did you get this particular slant on the result of the trial - it wasn't via one of our honourable newspapers by any chance?

I think you will find he left the court with his head, and his reputation , held high. Nice man.

Am I the only one who thinks "who gives a f**k!!!"

So what if he's straight, gay, bi, trans-whatever, confused, open minded, camp, butch, mincing, blah, blah, f**king blah....

Its clear what this tabloid rag's agenda is... more homophobic inuendos to whip up the moronic bigots into a frenzy of self righteous indignation.

Lets face it the tabloid mafia had there noses put out of joint by Burrell signing exclusive deals with the The Daily Mirror and ever since they've been out to destroy the guy.

It's rightful owner was unfortunately dead. The Queen was well aware of why Paul did what he did, why he tried to protect some of Diana's property by removing it from Kensington Palace, and she was in agreement with his motives. If the Queen hadnt agreed with his actions, would it really have been 3 1/2 years before action was taken against him - and would that action really have been in the courts and in public?

Just because you make inuendos doesn't make you homophobic. I quite like doing it on here, because its funny (to me).

I agree with you about the tabloids though.

i'm surpised no one has mentioned paul's ex gay lover who now lives in australia,while his wife and kids are on the other side of the world, maybe an extra incentive that got him out there.

oh give me a break, Morrissey was the icon for those of my generation with self-hatred, gay or straight. Listening to these divas is just a sign of appalling taste in music.

I saw the interview with Vic Reeves - my interpretation of it was completely different from everyone else's I think. Whe Ant & Dec suggested (tongue in cheek) that Janet probably fancied Paul, that's when Vic made his remark about Compton Street. I took this to mean that he thought Janet was more of a bloke!

what are you on m8, if you know what compton street is about you would know that was not what he meant, i think vic's remark was more of a jibe at pauls well documented life as a promiscuous homosexual in his younger days

actually I have to contradict myself - Minnelli's Pet Shop Boys-produced album was quite good!

a 'promiscuous homosexual'? - what a load of tat, just like your remark about paul's gay ex-lover in Australia (who I'm sure was well-remunerated from his kiss and tell exclusive). I'm sure you don't know his sexual history - it certainly isn't 'well-documented'.

I was already aware of the 'allegation', which may or may not be true. And if it is true, it doesn't make him 'promiscuous' - what makes you think he was promiscuous?

I don't give a damn whether he has had gay relationships in the past or has them now, I object to tabloid stories being treated as gospel.

being locked up in a camp with JSP is enough to drive any red-blooded male to homosexuality.

Who cares whether he is gay/straight/bi/camp/black/blue/pink/whatever. He is a nice person with good manners and he doesn't bitch all the time like some of the others on IACGMOOH.

I like him and I've been voting for him and I hope he wins!

What an absolutly nasty piece of so called reporting, It proved nothing at all, only that the reporter was out to disparage him and his wife.

I thought that it was particullaly nasty the way they kept putting his wife in quotes! Sheer induendo!!!!

do the same google search with your username "leighh" - you will get almost the same percentage if you add the word "gay"
