TOPIC:

I could be wrong and may have missed something and will stand corrected if I have but so far I've not seen or heard anything that constitutes a criminal offence. Offensive yes but nothing that he could be charged with in a criminal court or sued in a civil trial. He sounds like a bully, a bore, a pig who used his position to intimidate others and hopefully he is remembered for being just that...but can't see much else is going to happen to him as it's not against the law to be a first class pratt.

I just went on-line and read what he is allegedly supposed to have done which includes sexual assault so I take all in my previous post back....hang the mongrel if it's true.

How many so called "personalities" are now enjoying a bloody good career riding on the coat tails of Don Burke and how he changed television in Australia? That bloke that does The Block springs to mind. Didn't he get his start in Backyard Blitz? A Don Burke produced show.
Probably Don Burke has a lot to answer for alright for all the rubbish that we get force fed every week of the year these days.

If Santa reads this can I have the Burke's Backyard box set please SANTA? Don Burke is a legend of Australian television but he's found out the reality how ugly and grubby and false people really are in TV world. I wish you all the best Don.

Couple of big statements there DD. The bloke admits he was an arsehole, but we all know that he's admitted to this only because he's been found out. As for "a legend of Australian television", isn't/wasn't Mr Harris one as well?

Anyone that asks Caroline Wilson "Can I lick your back" while she was pregnant needs to be shot......
