    I hope his career continues 'cause he's a fantastic actor and he seems like a genuinely fun guy to be around. I loved him in Doctor Who. His character shines through and it's a friendly, silly, excitable character, not a creep.

      Sadly I don’t think that’s the case because since the allegations came out he’s been getting fewer roles because he hasn’t really appeared in anything the last two years. He wasn’t asked back for Jodie’s final Doctor Who episode or the Dr Who 60th Anniversary Specials. I’m worried his career might never recover despite his claim that the accusations were blown out of proportions and despite the fact that most of his fans were willing to forgive him. He said in a recent Instagram video that the last couple of years have not been easy for him. He might actually be blacklisted/cancelled.

      He was born in Scotland and he moved to America when he was 8 or 9. He was bullied at school because of his accent and instead of letting it be, he thought "Hey, I can play that game too" and he learnt how to speak with an American accent.

      The thing is it wasn't acceptable back then either? Julie confirmed she received complaints and JB was reprimanded for these bahaviours back in 2008, like on set. I love him and I've no doubt he didn't have an ounce of malicious intent and the point about changing and growing makes sense, but I feel part of that should be to be able to recognise the harm that was done. It wouldn't be a new apology anyway, JB released a statement saying he apologised back then too. Asking him to apologize now is just asking him to recognise that apology. I wish he had just said he still feels sorry about it and wouldn't do it now. It's better than getting defensive about it.@@FlyingMonkies325

    It’s all about consent. If nobody’s feeling wronged, I don’t know what the problem is. Obviously “it was a different time” is a stupid argument, because at one time it was perfectly acceptable to own slaves. You can’t chalk that up to a “different time.” But if there are no victims, there is no crime. What did he do exactly? Flirt with people? That’s kind of his character on the show.
