were jeremy and brett lovers.

The claims he was selling things for IT is clearly bogus, just not believable.

He had death duties to pay and Cock allowed sales to pay of the debt, that is fact Mat.

Death duties aren't payable until after probate and they were no where near that. Jeremy may have asked BC if he could sell things for that reason but he ended up in St. Tropez - that's a fact! 

[lookout]

 Compare prices of St Tropez as they were then to what they are now------------a Hell of a difference,and he washed dishes to help fund his stay,which wasn't in a 5* hotel.
When you talk of St Tropez,you tend to think of present day costs,whether on purpose I don't know, just to add to his indomitable flair for all things luxurious I suppose--------except that he stayed there in a caravan.

Yes, that is a fact. It also has nothing to do with what I said though.

How much were these death duties?

[lookout]

Anyway,Jeremy was hounded by the press at that time and his only means of escape was to go abroad for respite and relief away from them. I don't see the problem.

But you wouldn't, Lookout.

That's why today you've kept posting "I don't see the problem." No matter the issue or topic!

It wasn't his only means of escape. It was the one he chose. Quiet and inconspicuous dignity might have solved his problem.

Was he?

[lookout]

 At least Jeremy's previous crimes ( drugs and the caravan park theft ) didn't have to be prised out of him.He quite willingly admitted to having marijuana on him when first arrested,so he wasn't backwards in coming forwards over admitting those things,the same as he would have been over the murders had it been him. He was just one of those people who couldn't keep anything to himself,this is why there's been no admission this past 30 years because he simply didn't do it and I believe him. 

[lookout]

Was he?

Yes,he was indeed. It was a constant intrusion in his life which would drive anyone crackers.

Nothing there, then, about admitting to the lesser crime in order to divert attention from the greater one.

Of course he wasn't.

Although if you're arrested with weed on you..admitting you've got it on you is quite obvious when they are going to find it anyway, you've been arrested afterall..

I don't think he was Lookout.

[Caroline]

In fact, do you know how the press (particularly The Sun) found out he was a suspect in the murders? (here's one for the conspiracy theorists who thought EP were in cahoots with The Sun  )
