![]() ![]() It included a full tub of margarine and eight prison spoons of flour.Īs for Glitter, 76, aka Paul Gadd, in 2015, the pedophile and former pop star was sentenced to 16 years in prison for sexually abusing three young girls between 1975 and 19. In 2010, her cookbook for prisoners was revealed, including a recipe for Victoria Sponge. Killer West piled on the pounds over the years following a much publicised love of cakes and chocolate. It also introduces a new way of measuring ingredients in “prison spoons”: The Mail adds “fat” the list of West’s offences. There were lots of flu-like symptoms and she took to her bed.” To date we’ve been told that depraved killer Rose West and paedophile Gary Glitter have received the jab.Ī source tells the Sun: “Why can’t West wait until they’ve at least started vaccinating some over-65s who aren’t serving life for murdering ten people? She suffered quite a bad reaction. The Sun is seeing which of them has received and injection for Covid-19. Of those 30% are inside for ‘violence against the person’ and 18% for sexual offences. This is a terribly serious programme.There are around 79,000 people locked up in UK prisons. But here there’s not so much as a can of Silly String. ![]() I assumed the Glittercution would feature dry ice, disco lights, and a hundred party poppers going off as his neck cracked. It would be funnier if they showed him decked out in full 70s glam gear throughout, being led to the gallows in a big spangly costume with shoulder pads so huge they get stuck in the hole as he plunges through. Visually, we’re talking late-period Glitter, with the evil wizard shaved-head-and-elongated-white-goatee combo that makes him resemble a sick alternative Santa.

I just can’t picture it in quite enough detail for my liking. Brooker writes on a new British telemovie that imagines the trial and death of Britain’s most notorious pedophile, former popstar Gary Glitter, whose 1972 hit “Rock and Roll Pt 2” is still to this day played by the unwitting at sports events big and small across America:ĭon’t know about you, but sometimes I can’t sleep at night for wondering what it might be like if Gary Glitter were executed.
