Journalist and Broadcaster Sonia Poulton explores the history of paedophile allegations in British Politics. My Fighting Fund: Excellent resource for online historic cuttings: ELM GUEST HOUSE CORRECTION With the new viewers who have been brought this way, we have also been made aware of a location error. At I say I am outside the former Elm Guest House. I am not. This was a genuine mistake. It it slightly along the road. The house I am in front of has nothing to do with EGH, I want to make that abundantly clear. In fact even the actual building that was EGH has nothing to do with EGH. We’re human, a small team and mistakes happen. To be straight, and it’s no excuse for the mistake but I want to share it, anyway. I was not well filming that day. I was giddy and in pain walking down the entire street. By the time we arrived at the house I felt quite disoriented. We filmed a lot that day in London locations that were associated with horrific histories and later that evening I was ill and unable to walk for a period of time. That said, we want to get our work right so when we were approached yesterday with the news that we had got it wrong, we immediately sought to correct it. We tried to edit the video to completely remove this segment. This failed. Apparently because of the amount of views it has had, which is great, It wouldn’t allow that edit without posting the video fresh, and losing the views and comments. We tried to blur the video. But it wouldn’t allow us to do that either because there are copyright claims on the video from two parties who monetise it, who are not me. I consider this a necessary trade off to get this information out there. Then we tried to annotate it only to discover that You Tube doesn’t appear to do that anymore. So, yes, editing in You Tube is somewhat restrictive. Aside: if anyone knows a way to bypass these restrictions and edit this video, I would love to hear it. Thank you. So, currently, we were left only with the alternative of leaving the correction in the comments and description. And so here it is. Thank you.
