i can remember in 1976 going to a disco with my then BF, a quite popular local DJ had been booked to do a small session on the turntables and I can remember being back stage with him, he snogged me suddenly after just chatting for a bit and i was abit stunned and then I felt his had start to go under the hem of my skirt, (it was actually an embroidered smock dress) and i got away fast, it had happened so suddenly and quite shocked me, I told noone you know, not even my boyfriend, who was actually rather in awe of this guy. It's never been something I have forgotten bt i didn;t really ever see it as anything other than a bit rude of him. I've just googled him and he went from the local station to luxemberg and then to work for Virgin and is not a ceo at sky.
I am just reminiscing, that's all.

re-reading this it doesn't make it clear that my then BF was the disco organiser and his brother was the dj, it was their business. he had booked and paid the guest dj.
You were 20. It's happened to most of us at sometime.

at 20 i looked 16, he did a couple of TOTPs too ,
Your reaction might have been completely different at 16. You might not have been brave enough to get away fast.

Thank goodness attitudes have changed.
Are you going to sell this story to the Daily Mail?
I was 10, he was not a dj but a vicars son, ummmm you are so right.
Er - are you sure you meant CEO- there's only one CEO at sky and he was only 14 in 1976

I remember being disgusted at him and thinking him a creep. he was in his 30s i think. I think I was probably embarrassed about it though but it's just a snapshot of a memory and there's not much point trying to analyse my reaction now, but I definately know I was shocked but could not tell anyone else about it. I have just brought it to mind these last few weeks and wonder if it was something this guy was used to doing, it probably was, he's a media mogul now and probably shivering in his shoes over recent allegations flying about if indeed he behaed that way to other girls he encountered in his flashy suits.

I know who you mean now.
I suspect a lot of rock stars and other celebrities are feeling nervous about what may be revealed about them from the late 60s and 70s. I recall the roadies used to pick out young girls from the audience to go backstage with them and the stars

It's not quite the same though, I do know he was 'forcing his attentions' to use a very old fashioned phrase, and I can't remember what the chitchat pior to it happening had been about, but it was not any kind of 'come on'. Anyway, it has made me consider the positions of those young kids that have now come forward, if at 20 I was confused about it happening, how would a 12-16 year old have handled a even worse situation?
Sorry, yes your case may have been different but I feel that among those I described there were some who went further than the young girls may have wanted
