Normally I have no interest in the comings and goings of Jack Tweed, but I found myself reading The Snu the other day and puzzling over a detail of the report of his arrest. Tweed has been charged with rape, but his co-accused has not. The paper described the sexual activity involved as a "roasting". Now, I have no practical experience of said manoeuvre, but my understanding of it is that it involves two gentlemen partaking equally of a lady's pleasures, one at each end. Not being a lawyer, I don't know how this works, but if it was rape, shouldn't both men have been charged? Can anyone explain to me why Tweed has been and his mate hasn't?

Perhaps she'd consented to noshing off the friend, and Tweed walked in behind her and plugged himself in without saying please?

You have such a way with words, dear boy. I'll chalk that up as plausible. What's the film with Kevin Bacon and Colin Firth as a sort of Martin and Lewis double act? Interesting threesome scene in that where Firth gets over-enthusiastic, leading to Bacon shouting "Get your dick out of my ass" or similar. I caught it late one night on BBC1 and was agape. If anyone had told me I'd end my evening watching Colin Firth in a false moustache at precisely no degrees of separation from Kevin Bacon, I'd have laughed at them.
