Katherine Ryan tells Louis Theroux that prominent TV personality is 'a sexual predator'

Piers Morgan?

Andy Cohen?

This is useless without a name.

The novelty would be claiming there are prominent television personalties who are NOT sexual predators.

I think I see what you did there, OP.

That was helpful.

Bill Maher. Did you see Bella Thorne doing his podcast in that dungeon he has? He could barely control himself, he was trying to convince her to fly with him all around the country and leave her fiance and started grabbing at her legs like a complete freak.

R7 Ryan says it's a U.K t.v. personality. Reddit thinks it's Russell Brand.

Another suspect is David Walliams. I think that's more likely. He has predator vibes.

I’d never heard of this person, so kudos to her. Now her name is everywhere.

David Williams is the world’s biggest YMCA shower-hopping homo, so not him.

Russell Brand.

Can I say something about Katherine Ryan? I've worked in the restaurant industry for decades.

She starts off working at a Hooters in Ontario. She's so good she becomes the GM. She's so good at that, the company moves her to the Hooters in Manhattan. She's so great in New York that Hooters corporate moves her to London to open their London location as a manager.

You know what that tells me about her? She was sucking and fucking everyone above her in the management chain. Probably really debasing herself, since they felt obligated to reward her so handsomely.

That's how the restaurant world works.

R12 She said as much on the documentary - in which she did not come off very well. She said it was ok to fuck her boss “because she liked him” - but then later said she has never had a one night stand. Not slut-shaming, but get your fucks in order, playa.

presumably, admitting to all of that on camera presumably means there’s way more which is worse…

David Walliams may be the world's biggest homo but he also fucks women and was married to one.

oops, here's the link by some bimbo Walliams screwed.

R14 hooking up with some beard don’t convince no-one.

Didn’t convince me when I saw him at Heaven and in the Tottenham Court Rd YMCA showers back in the 90s.

If knowledge of this UK television personality is a sexual predator is "an open secret," then name him or STFU.

Harvey Weinstein was an open secret, but no one said it out loud.

They should have. And in this instance...

They should!

Isn't that what #MeToo taught?

R5 gets it!

He’s been mentioned in this thread.

Maybe r12 she’s high maintenance and they just moved her on - in the interests of advancing her career?

I'm tired of these women throwing out accusations but not naming names, she's lying for attention, stupid cunt.

R13 I don't specifically know about Hooters, but corporate prostitution is definitely practiced by much more banal restaurant chains so they have to also be doing it. I know Hooters waitresses often moonlight as escorts.

Whatever she did to get the London job had to have been either with executives or on behalf of the company with someone. That's how girls in their twenties get shipped to Europe to work a job they aren't old enough or experienced enough for.

But, like you said, if she's admitting to sleeping with her boss there must be much more damning things she's choosing not to talk about.

I found my Christmas present from my kids hidden in the garage and mama’s super pissed - who wants a cooking appliance? Plus Russell Hobbs is my least favourite brand.

Fuck this guy!

D'ya think it's Russell Brand, OP?

Was the UK swept over by #metro like the US entertainment industry? I get the impression that lower level sexual misconduct is more tolerated or expected to be par for the course in the UK

It's clearly Russell Brand. Not exactly a shock.

[Quote]She added that she was not a victim of the person: "It’s not really my story to tell. No one has perpetrated any sexual assault against me, but this person, I believe very strongly – many people believe very strongly – is an open secret, is a perpetrator of sexual assault."

That's right you aren't, love!

I don’t know them.

The problem with Brand is that Ryan said she called the predator out to his face 'every day' when they were on a series together (not her own show) but I can't find a series they were on together.

But that search turned up another candidate that she did work with--Noel Fielding. He's on record as making creepy sexual comments on the British Bakeoff show of all places. They were together on the series Live at the Apollo.

I briefly met Russell Brand and he's quite shy and timid in person. Not to say he can't assault someone, but it doesn't really fit the bill of what she's describing.

I love Katherine Ryan, but I do agree that if you're going to hint at things like this there is an obligation to say the whole truth - otherwise, say nothing.

What about Greg Davies? He's definitely big enough to assault a woman, he seems like he could get aggressive.

Thank christ she didn't name me.

Season One of Roast Battle UK. Brand didn't come back for the second season.

[quote] I love Katherine Ryan, but I do agree that if you're going to hint at things like this there is an obligation to say the whole truth - otherwise, say nothing.

I don't think she's obligated to put up or shut up. If enough people in the biz make it known they've heard the stories, the victims might feel more empowered to come forward.

More importantly, I wouldn't be able to spend the morning in endless speculation instead of working.

Weve all seen Brands tiny dick. NEXT !

R37. Bingo!! Thanks.

It's Brand.

I’m in 2 minds about this r32. Obviously, if she hasn’t personally witnessed or experienced abuse at the hands of this guy she can’t identify him, which she hasn’t. I’ve gone on Twitter, Reddit, Digital Spy. Everyone but everyone knows who she is talking about so it’s not like, say, Paul Merton or Michael McIntyre are in danger.

But saying nothing, not even saying “something stinks in comedy land”, is how Jimmy Savile and John Peel got away with it for decades at the BBC. Everyone knew. No one said anything.

Maybe if she did a John Lydon and launched a carefully non-slanderous rant fantasising about killing him during an interview would sit more comfortably, but this isn’t far off IMO.

Yeah, she’s referring to Rusty Tinymeat.

By the by, David Walliams is bisexual and Noel Fielding used to date Pixie Geldof when she was 16.

R34 Greg Davies is clearly a homosexual

Russell Brand is a well known, self described: sex addict, drug addict, porn addict, and narcissist.

How is this news?

R43 Is he, tho’?

You mean that a celebrity’s cultivated eccentricity is a front for sexual debauchery?

Has Ryan worked with David Walliams?

If she's not part of the solution, she is part of the problem. Its such a cliche thing to say, but its true. I hope the hell she's warned people behind the scenes. I hope this won't be another Bill Cosby situation..

Daniel Sloss hates Russell Brand

R48 It absolutely is. This woman isn't a feminist and obviously Brand has pissed off people in the industry and an effort is being made to ruin him.

I'm totally lost as to what the appeal of Katy Ryan is to Brits. She's talentless and her "jokes" consist of parroting American Instagram memes she obviously doesn't understand the cultural context for.

She's a half step up from a minstrel as far as I'm concerned.

I don't mind Katherine Ryan in small doses, but she's far from my favourite comedienne.

[quote] Katherine Ryan tells Louis Theroux

Never heard of Ryan but Theroux is a self-obsessed, self-righteous, self-adoring pain in the rectum.

Theroux's shows are mildly entertaining in a quirky way but I actually find him to be very incurious. For example, he never dug properly into Jimmy Savile - did he at least not do some research or hear any rumours especially if he was working at the BBC. He tends to take people as how they present themselves. Another example is his Las Vegas gambling show - there was a guy from Canada who made his money from mattresses and would gamble big. I started wondering where his money really came from and whether there was a money laundering aspect. But Theroux never really digs deeper.

[quote] he never dug properly into Jimmy Savile

He did two shows starring Savile. The first one was lame and said nothing.

Louis Theroux keeps the camera on himself for 80% of the show's time. He seems to think that his large frame and boyish, awkward naivety is charming.

It isn't.

I saw the second show on Savile and he seemed genuinely remorseful about how he bought Savile's schtick but he STILL didn't seem to understand his naivete and lack of real curiosity was the issue.

It's not a surprise to see that he was privately educated. A lot of them seem to coast on confidence and 'eccentricity/quirkiness' as opposed to real substance (Boris Johnson, Laurence Fox, Rory Stewart, Nigel Farage ad nauseum).

He’s a nepotism baby (even appears as a character in The Mosquito Coast) - life’s peachy - he doesn’t care what we think. Long as he’s famous.

Yeah, Theroux is just an entertainer in the end. Can't expect anything of real meaning or substance from him.

Barbara Walters?

Pretty sure Corey Feldman isn't a woman, R21. How many years did he talk about big Hollywood names abusing young males but he couldn't possibly name them until people give him millions in donations?

I wouldn't be surprised if it's Brand, tbh. I saw video of him in an interview where he pulled some woman onto his lap and then when she mentioned she had a boyfriend he snapped at her and walked off stage. I think it was on YouTube. It looked like a talkshow, but I didn't recognize the host.

As a Brit, I don’t really understand why this American Frau Ms. Ryan is always on our telly. She’s amusing sometimes, and is nice-looking and well-spoken and presentable, but still. What’s she doing here? What does she want?

Ryan is very unlikeable.

She was on a show called Safeword which humiliates the celebrities taking part. Yes the celebrities should have known what they were signing up for but Ryan was sadistic and clearly took great pleasure in it.

Her Netflix series was fucking awful. Not surprised it was cancelled after one series.

As for the sexual predator, I'm not clear if she means someone who is creepy and behaves inappropriately (i.e. having consensual sex with interns or junior staff and then dumps them quickly) or someone who commits criminal offences and violates women.

R61 She's Canadian, we are not responsible for her. She is also a Canadian who seems remarkably ignorant about American culture, despite her entire career resting on blindly aping it on T.V. She's painful to watch.

Her career is bizarre. Sure, there are plenty of unfunny comedians who can book a regular panel show appearance (thanks to British comedy being dominated by two talent agencies), but the amount of opportunities she's gotten off the back of very little talent is astonishing.

Katy sucks, Katy Blows.

How she gets work, no one knows.

Theroux HAS done some good stuff. Weird Weekends was very entertaining (the hypnosis episode is my favorite, and really evokes the kinds of scams that influencers and business gurus like gary vee are running now). I thought his documentaries on alcoholism and families with medicated children were well done too, I think he's at his best when his style of making unconventional/outsider people very comfortable with him serves the material which worked with addicts, families, and wholesome goofballs and that sort of stuff. Gonzo anything has to come to an end though.

R66 Name some things he has broken though? Otherwise it's just stuff people know already.

Who?

Brand's dick is undoubtedly as gross as his hair.

I think some people miss the point of Louis Theroux. He is not some great investigative journalist. His documentaries are for entertainment. We have programmes like Panorama and Dispatches which take on the important stuff. I enjoy watching Louis but watch to be entertained rather than educated.

Theroux can be great, I've really enjoyed many of his shows (year ago), they had a moral streak running through them, moral without being judgemental, makes for some great portraits of people in difficult situations who otherwise wouldn't have opened up - in interviews he's a bit different I've noticed, you occasionally see shades of a my way or the highway type of activist, which I find to be a shame.

I always preferred Ruby Wax's shows in the 90s than Theroux's, and wish she was still doing them. They were similarly structured but hers were funnier to me, and yet still she wasn't afraid to ask the tough questions - see her interviews with Trump, Imelda Marcos, Carrie Fisher, Madonna... the actual investigative ones she did (such as the episode on the chain gang, or the one on beauty pageants) were a lot more enlightening and she had a natural rapport with these people.

She felt a bit more genuine (wasn't putting on this 'lovable' awkward, gawky persona that Theroux does).

[quote] His documentaries are for entertainment.

The gay bloggers on Youtube can do that. They're equally as entertaining but without Mr Theroux's sanctimony.

I still remember just how chaotic Ruby Wax's interview with Jim Carrey was. It was nuts.

r72, I've heard Ruby Wax's interviews lauded quite a few times on the DL, I keep meaning to look one of them up, I definitely will. I think she does a lot of charity work now, I know she does some work with people who've been through/are going the "mental health" meat grinder.

[quote]he never dug properly into Jimmy Savile

That's gonna stink.

I have no opinion on this, I know nothing, but Ryan said of man she couldn't mention that both of his names were things you can't do to cattle.

Captain Kangaroo?

Y'all, for real for real I can't say anything 'cause I've got a mortgage and kids to look out for. Mama's gotta get paid, I can't risk that mortgage on this!

I'm not saying this, but his first name is something tissue paper does and his last name rhymes with "bland." Oh my God I wish I could say who it is, but I have a career to protect!

R77 It's illegal in many countries to david or walliams cattle.

[quote]I have no opinion on this, I know nothing, but Ryan said of man she couldn't mention that both of his names were things you can't do to cattle.

Well it can't be Rustle Brand because both of those can be done to cattle.

whoops, I'm sloppy today:

[quote]He is also a massive bell end. Happens to be named after two things you can do to cattle, is a comedian and Podcaster, dresses flamboyant and lots of women seem to fancy him.

Yeah, that's100% Russell Brand.

Anyone know what kind of things he's alleged to do?

Just like, stuff. You know. He definitely probably sexually assaulted someone in a like really serious, like, criminal way. I never saw it but everybody says so and I'm definitely sure he probably did. I can't believe my career could be in jeopardy because I bravely stood up and denounced a criminal. Good thing I never said who it was.

True. I mean, he's sleazy and probably hits on women all the time but that's a lot different to actually assaulting them. I have to give him the benefit of the doubt until some women come out and say what he's done.

I didn't like her TV show, or her persona, or her shtick. I think she thinks she's hotter than she is. Whatever she's done to her face, more specifically her mouth, looks weird.

Noel Clarke faced multiple accusations and it got to a point the final episode of a series he was in was pulled from being aired.

But the police found no case to answer.

Deciding not to launch a formal investigation is not the same as finding no case to answer

Its Simon Cowell

I don’t know who this woman is, or the person she talked to. Really what was the point of #metoo and the Harvey Weinstein case if women still won’t name names? It doesn’t help them, or other women. Unless of course this is just a publicity stunt. I hope it isn’t. Wouldn’t be overly surprised if it was though.

[quote]Deciding not to launch a formal investigation is not the same as finding no case to answer

No criminal charges were brought against Noel Clarke. "no case to answer" is a poor phrase (my bad) but on whatever evidence was given the police did not consider it met the threshold for criminal investigation.

I thought Theroux's first documentary on Savile was excellent precisely because he didn't pry, and let Savile "be himself." It was so, so creepy. I don't care for most of his other work because it's usually so focused on Theroux himself.

Isn’t Simon Cowell not long for this world?

Look, I can't say who it is, but he wears a lot of eyeliner and dresses like a low rent Johnny Depp. Let's just say, if he wore tracksuits he'd definitely prefer the Russell brand.

If she wasn’t talking-but-not-talking about him, if/when someone comes out with allegations, she would be criticised for not offering public support earlier.

She's supposedly under an injunction (?) I have no idea what that means, but according to Reddit she can't speak publicly about this.

It means that Russell Brand has spent several hundred thousand pounds to prevent her talking about it.

Oh, I don't like injunctions. 1 - only rich people can plausibly afford them 2 - bad for transparency and free speech. I understand that in some cases maybe they are warranted but..

r97 It means someone went to court and got an order ruling that the allegations cannot be talked about, under threat of contempt of court. There's also a super-injunction, which means in addition to not being able to talk about the allegations, you also can't even discuss the existence of the injunction itself.

Gather 'round. I have googled.

Russell Brand has had a press injunction (not a super injunction) for almost a decade against a Hungarian masseuse who had claimed he "treated her like a prostitute." Katy Ryan is entirely uninvolved, much as she might wish to be.

Super injunctions have been granted to celebrities in previous blackmail and extortion cases, such as to Take That singer Howard Donald. Super injunctions seem to only apply to the press and to individuals named in the ruling.

So if Katy Ryan wasn't taken to court by Russell Brand, and I don't see why or how she could have been, she's free to say his name in public and report that he is the subject of sexual assault rumors.

^ that is a separate matter which has nothing to do with what Katherine Ryan has been saying on podcasts.

I'm not going to voluntarily listen to her speaking. Feel free to report back.

[quote]So if Katy Ryan wasn't taken to court by Russell Brand

Wrong. In English law, a gagging injunction applies to everyone. You should try googling a bit harder next time.

I guess the existence of secret court cases which you are forbidden to even speak about means anyone can pretend that they are subject to a secret court order without repercussions.

r105 is really pissed that someone got promoted in a restaurant, while he's stuck working the nightshift at Cracker Barrel

Prince William took an injunction out on people discussing an alleged affair with a neighbour. But it applied in England, not in Scotland and elsewhere. But it’s worth him spending the money because he can afford it an it is a scare tactic.

Ditto Hugh Bonneville. Google Helen Wood and dildo. Yes, everyone knows, and most of the population of the world is not prevented from discussing it, but his wife and kids don’t see it on the front pages of the Evening Sandard after school - even if he spent hundred of thousands of his savings, which would be a harder financial hit to him than to a Royal.

R106 I want to know why a used up old hooker who does braindead Yank slag drag on British telly is blacklisting established entertainers.

r108 She isn't blacklisting anyone though, is she? And by the way, she isn't the only one making the accusations.

R109 who else has made them?

Sara Pascoe was on Ryan's show, and they discussed it there including talking about Ryan confronting him.

Plus, you know, the whole way the comedy world pretty much automatically said 'oh that's about Brand'

[quote]Prince William took an injunction out on people discussing an alleged affair with a neighbour. But it applied in England, not in Scotland and elsewhere. But it’s worth him spending the money because he can afford it an it is a scare tactic.

Hun, you can't get an injunction in English courts stopping "people" discussing something.

You can get an injunction stopping the reporting of a story by a news outlet - see Ryan Giggs taking out an injunction against The Sun. Prince Harry has an injunction to stop publication of the naked photos of him in Vegas.

Do you honestly think that a if a credible news outlet in the US had evidence of an affair involving Prince William they wouldn't publish it?

[quote]Hun, you can't get an injunction in English courts stopping "people" discussing something.

You're simply wrong about that. Here, have the attorney general warning Twitter users they'll be done for contempt of court for breaching an injunction.

I really don't understand why posters like r112 make comments about things they know nothing about.

R113 Twitter is legally considered a publisher. They're a form of press.

r114 It says Twitter users, not Twitter.

R112 - hun, pipe down, mmmkay? 😘

[quote]Do you honestly think that a if a credible news outlet in the US had evidence of an affair involving Prince William they wouldn't publish it?

Um who gives a shit we’re talking about injunction in England.

quote] You're simply wrong about that. Here, have the attorney general warning Twitter users they'll be done for contempt of court for breaching an injunction.

The injunction wasn’t taken out against ‘people on Twitter’. It was taken out against The Sun. People then discussed the injunction and who the footballer was.

And it looks like you didn’t read the article you linked to. As the lawyer points out, how can a person breach an injunction they don’t know exists?

It might be libellous to tweet that Prince William was fucking a neighbour but without having the details of this alleged injunction how can anyone be faced with legal action for breaching it?

r118 Are you really this dense? So you think it only applied to The Sun? So why did no other paper run the story? Why was the attorney general threatening to go after individual Twitter users? Because it applies to everyone, not just The Sun. Seriously, just the tiniest bit of googling would've helped you stop yourself looking like a massive idiot.

And a lawyer offered an opinion that it'd be a difficult case for the AG to take on, not that it was impossible.

I appreciate you've dug yourself into a hole over this.

Your original post was

"Prince William took an injunction out on people discussing an alleged affair with a neighbour."

This is literally impossible in English law.

You can't take an injunction out against millions of people living in a country. In the Ryan Giggs case he took an injunction out against The Sun from reporting his affair with a minor celebrity. The injunction wasn't taken out against people in general, it was taken out against The Sun. Not The Daily Mirror, The Daily Mail or the BBC, but The Sun.

And in response to "So why did no other paper run the story?" the answer is obvious, because Imogen Thomas had sold her story to The Sun for a huge amount of money and the other papers didn't have the facts or the testimony. When The Sun did eventually publish they repeated the claims and from memory other women came forward.

As Dominic Grieve warned, members of the public "MAY" be subject to breaching the injunction if they name the person on Twitter, even though they are not the subject of the injunction.

And on your claim that "Prince William has an injunction" - how do you know this? Where has it been reported? How would anyone know this injunction is in place? How could anyone be found guilty of breaching an injunction they can't know exists?

It's not like the naming of child offenders or victims of sexual assault who have a legal right to anonymity. James Bulger's murderers and the rape victim at the centre of the Ched Evans trial have had their anonymity breached online and people have been prosecuted for it.

Theroux’s latest , I think this was a compelling production. Very chilling and this is just all the stuff from DLs current top threads. Take it easy on Louis!

I wish Greg Davies would push himself on me!

Theroux makes Mondo documentaries for middle class Brits.

[quote]Your original post was "Prince William took an injunction out on people discussing an alleged affair with a neighbour."

As is now a common theme with your posts - you're once again wrong, I never said that. Check my post history.

[quote]You can't take an injunction out against millions of people living in a country

You've been proven wrong about this so many times already, it's ridiculous that you're still clinging to this argument. You're clearly not British, and yet still trying to pretend you understand English law in this regard. Go read up on the Trafigura injunction and how they threatened to sue an MP for breaking it, despite that MP having parliamentary privilege.

R107 posted "Prince William took an injunction out on people discussing an alleged affair with a neighbour. But it applied in England, not in Scotland and elsewhere. But it’s worth him spending the money because he can afford it an it is a scare tactic."

Is R107 different to R124?

Had no idea about Hugh B. Just read his autobio and of course nothing mentioned there.

(it's a bore, btw)

r125 Why don't you check my post history and find out? Or is that, like research, just another thing you don't know how to do?

R122 you’re a sick puppy, but do go on. Greg, eh…

R128 I know, I'm an immoral slut.

He's just such a big tall beefy man.....my kryptonite

How brave of her

I still want to see Louis Theroux's Polaroids from his porn audition (they came up on The Graham Norton Show a few years ago).

Russell Brand is a narcissistic COVID truther, anti vaxxer, raging Putinista troll. No wonder his "career" is in the shitter.

R132 I bet he's hung. He's such an awkward dork but those are the kind that will haul out a dangler.

This is definitely about David Walliams. Some women recently told of their experiences with him to someone in the publishing realm. Whether they go public with them remains to be seen.

Not really linked to the Ryan allegation, but not worth creating a new thread over. From Popbitch:

Old footage of a Little Britain Live routine resurfaced in recent months in which David Walliams (in character as 'Des Kaye') drags a series of teenage boys up onto the stage to play a game of 'Hide The Sausage' with them. This involves him wrestling each of them to the floor, pulling down their pants to bare their arses, then writhing around on top of them trying to hump them.

The footage is from 2007 but the routine is actually one of Walliams' oldest bits.

In his schooldays at Reigate Grammar he was famous for pushing smaller boys against a wall and dry-humping them for laughs. The only difference is that the character was called "Cuthbert Hogsbottom" back then.

[quote] I believe very strongly [Mr. X] is a perpetrator of sexual assault."

This woman is a troll without evidence

When Pi*rs Mor*an was working in America trying to make it big something went down. He came back to the UK. All employees of the TV media company he worked for had to allegedly sign a very specific non disclosure agreement in regards to an an incident. One of the ex employees then stated on Twitter that he was fired for Sexual harrassment. And not your average sexual harassment either. It was allegedly quite up there in terms of aggressiveness. You can still find it online. All unsubstantiated and am not saying it occurred. Just repeating gossip that can be found online.

There’s a weird bit in David Walliams memoir about his heart being broken by an unnamed young woman he calls The Actress (it’s a teenage Romola Garai). They go on a cruise with a bunch of comics (a pre Gavin And Stacey James Corden is one of them, and I think maybe Rob Brydon or Ben Miller?) and in the cabin she reads his diary. She has a huge meltdown about the descriptions of women he fucked and dumps him.

I saw Russell Brand trending on Twitter and it reminded me that this story never came to anything.

A posh British journalist called George Monbiot who has a long history of associating with far left cranks (George Galloway, Jeremy Corbyn) has written an article on Brand becoming a crank, despite Brand’s long history of crank association, including promoting David Icke and sharing 9/11 conspiracies.

Am a Brit, and while I certainly believe this allegation and take it seriously, and have no love for Brand or Theroux or Walliams and their ilk, I can’t abide this Yank women either.

She’s all over our panel shows and comedy specials, and she’s just not funny or interesting. Either that, or her comedy doesn’t translate. She looks beautiful, which is suppose is why she got the gig. We’ve plenty of homegrown female talent to fill her spot, she can go home now.

Am sorry about her ordeal, however, and support her outing any misdemeanour (though naming and shaming may be the way to do it rather than vague allusion, no?). Men in the industry really are pigs.

Nakedness and horseplay is inherently humourous as well as titillating to British men. Perhaps it’s all the repression.

That's a perfectly valid reason to break up a relationship. Mans was writing a confessional book about gory filthy details of his hoeing, presumably with names, and left it around where his gf could easily access it. He sounds like a pervert and an exhibitionist.

R143 Excuse you, she is Canadian. Please employ the appropriate slur. Thank you.

There are rumours on Twitter that one of the British Sunday papers is about to break a massive #MeToo story. Also, Channel 4 have scheduled a ninety-minute episode of Dispatches tomorrow, but haven't given any indication of what it's about. Wonder if all this has anything to do with the celebrity Katherine Ryan mentioned last year?

Name a name or shut the fuck up.

I just hope it isn't Jimmy Carr. She's worked with him in the past.
