[QUOTE]The 63-year-old, who previously presented from a weather map on ITV’s This Morning, is being questioned over three counts of indecent assault and four counts of inciting a child to commit acts of gross indecency. The alleged offences relate to his time as a teacher at Altrincham Grammar School for Boys in Trafford, Greater Manchester, between the early 1970s and early 1980s.[/QUOTE] [IMG]https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTyQOk2SIKXBkXQE3hQvLda23ZLYHXQAY6js7lurP3rKSgI9FU66g[/IMG] I think pretty much everyone that watched tv in the mornings in the UK will have had this guy as their weatherman on and off for quite a long time. He used to be on pretty often, going to different places and stuff for viewers to guess, too. It's really weird to think someone I saw on tv regularly growing up might have been responsible for messing up the childhoods of some poor kids, especially as Altrincham isn't that far from me at all.
