I Am A Swede

R.I.P. As the World Turns is one of the few long-running soaps that, to my knowledge, never aired here in Sweden, so I'm not all that familiar with it. But it's always sad when a legend leave us, and from everything I've learned about ATWT and Ms Hays she really lived up to that often over-used label.

I think this was such a shocking incident that people are having trouble sorting out their feelings about it and what the consequences should be. I don't recall something even remotely like this ever happening before.

Absolutely if. As you say, there have been conflicting reports on that subject. As for the other things you mentioned.... Woody Allen is a tricky one. He's never been, as far as I recall, convicted of anything, has he? One can discuss his relationship with Soon-Yi and how appropriate it is, but questionable behaviour is one thing, and illegal behaviour is another. Mere allegations shouldn't be enough, especially when they're as contested as the allegations towards him are, otherwise we're on a very dangerous path. Harvey Weinstein's behaviour was apparently an open secret in Hollywood and noone did anything about it. But when it came out into the light the Academy did expel him. Too little too late some might say, and that's unquestionably true, but they did react however late. Roman Polanski.... well, there's no excuse for that. You could drag up the old separate the art from the artist, but whichever way you put it the Academy (and most of Hollywood) honoured and rewarded a rapist and a fugitive from the law. I can't and won't ever condone or support that. Adrien Brody..... I can see how that could be seen as a sexual assault (although maybe assault sounds a little too harsh) and I wouldn't have blamed Halle if she had been upset. I would perhaps be willing to view that with a little more lenience though, since winning an Academy Award is undoubtedly a highly emotional moment and sometimes people do things when they're in such an emotional state they would never normally do.

If he was asked to leave and refused then they should have had him removed. It could have caused more mayhem, but letting him stay set a dangerous precedent.

Gee, what a surprise.....

I think we saw the front door of Southfork on one or two occasions, early on in the show's run. I think this scene for instance shows the front door:

Emmerdale is nominated in the category "Soap and continuing drama" at the BAFTA TV Awards 2022. The other nominees are "Holby City", "Casualty" and "Coronation Street". In a slightly sad twist, "Holby City" aired its last episode last night, the day before the nominations were announced. Full list of nominees here: Bafta TV Awards 2022: The nominations

He slapped someone. That hardly makes him Public Enemy nr 1! I'm not condoning what he did. It was completely out of line and he should face some consequences, but it was hardly the crime of the century.

Remove him from the building? Yes. Rescind his Academy Award? Don't be ridiculous! His behaviour was bad, but let's keep things in perspective.....
