I'm thinking of a priests and housekeepers protest outside Hat Trick and/or Sonia Friedman's offices.

Thanks very much big G. The showbiz gender extremist nodders don't give one genuine fuck about the harm being caused to children. Their priority is maintaining the facade that sells their product.

I can't imagine how awful it is facing the Father Ted related front and back stabbing. I seethed for two weeks when someone copied an eBay auction format I'd spent a couple of hours making!

In the last 4 weeks the hattrick YouTube channel has posted 8 clips (200k views) from Father Ted and just 6 clips (12k views) from all their other shows combined. Their channel description prominently places Father Ted as being one of theirs:

Their Twitter page, on the other hand, makes no reference to Ted whatsoever and the account last tweeted "Ted" in 2015:

Their fear of the twitter mob is palpable regardless of their clear understanding that Ted is their best and most popular product on other platforms.

Thanks very much for pointing that out. Hat Trick very transparently varying their public image for different social media audiences.

Oh please let us know on a Hat Trick protest Graham. I’d happily travel down to London town for that! Just need to rustle up an outfit. Ta dah!

Very much disagree with the last point in the video on requiring workers to sign the Women's Declaration. No one should ever be required to adopt a political position in order to work, regardless of whether it's even legally possible which is unlikely.

I hope you are writing a book on this Graham - it is a story that really must be told. Thank you for all you are doing to protect the rights of women and children. You are a complete champion.

One supports one’s friends and you are helping educate me in this mad world my son is in so I’ve got your back if you do it. I salute and thank for all you do and I’ll be there!

Note that scapegoating and shunning are religious practices used to enforce taboos. Graham broke the taboo and had to be destroyed for it.
