Thank you for asking / answering my question! As a woman who came into comedy at 47, when I doubt my place in the industry and feel like I am swimming against the tide, I think of actress Liz Smith (Nana from The Royle Family) who had her first ever film role at 50! It was great to hear who you look to and lean on when it can feel like swimming against the tide, just for being you, is getting tiring! TY x
agreed, I think they were lucky that Layton does appear to be very resilient and tough but theres no way they could have known that and its risky and harmful not to put in that support
Basically the bbc through their ignorance, short sightedness and stupidity threw poor Layton under the bus, that resilience and toughness you said, comes at a cost for it would not take much to flush a couple of ketamine tablets down down ones neck with a bottle of gin. Apart from a couple, most bbc bigwig interviewers only care about paying their gas electric bill and mortgage.
The bigwig suits running film and tv these days regard you and Johannes as a means to boost their profit margin, to have very little or no pastoral care in time of need is frankly despicable. If you were a two year old thoroughbred race horse owned by a Sheik , that hotted up hayburner would be pampered ,cared for, to an inch of his life in order to win prestigious races.
Thank you, it is true, the bigwig suits in tv and film are in fact running a form of legalised animal cruelty, some celeb interviewers play ,prey on those that do not fit their narrow minded brief like a cat with a mouse. .

I don’t think bbc gave Layton enough support to address the haters externally. They just let him take all the crap.
