That was my understanding but I’m not an expert. They might have a good case (don’t these tend to revolve around lost earnings?) or it could have been just said out of spite to rain on his parade or their lawyer reckons Spacey would settle (because what’s a few hundred k when you could be earning millions?). We’ll have to wait and see.

Loss of earnings or reputational damage I suppose, I think these might be quite hard to demonstrated but like you I’m not entirely sure.

We will have to see how it develops, I’ll be honest, it would be quite nice if one of my heros wasn’t actually a bloody sex pest for once.

  Ironically, it’s Spacey who has lost earnings and reputation but that’s not how it works.

  That’d be great. It feels like so many people you read or watched from.the seventies to the nineties was up to no good.

    I am in my 40’s so I don’t remember the 70’s, but 80’s and 90’s it really was a different time! I mean honestly so was the 2000’s, when I think of some of the TV that was made. Remember something about Mirriam?
