To compare what Chris Fountain did to the allegations brought against Bill Roache and Michael Le Vell is ridiculous.
Bill and Michael are innocent. They were cleared of all charges.
Chris did do those awful rap videos and it's cost him his job and a lot of work.
Chris Fountain getting sacked has nothing to do with the allegations made against Bill and Michael. Chris did all himself and if ITV did let him keep his job, half the cast of Corrie would've left (they wanted him gone).
