Truth or lies...
Is it just me or does everyone think truth is a funny thing?
How is it, that two people can look back at the exact same set of events and see them completely differently?
Members of the same family do it…some kids remember a happy upbringing…maybe a bit harsh…but all in all.. not too bad…their siblings can see it completey differently…a childhood of hardship and deprivation…it’s a common problem.
This morning YOUNG Talent Time founder Johnny Young has hit back at YTT star Debra Byrnes childhood recollections….
In an interview this week to promote her new book Debbie Byrne has claimed she was introduced to sex drugs and rock and roll on the set of young talent time…she says she was 12 when she started a relationship with a 24-year-old YTT crew member.
"That's illegal and they must have known," she said. "It's frightening no-one stopped us."
But Johnny Young isn’t having it. Overnight he said Young Talent Time first went to air in April, 1971, and Ms Byrne turns 50 next March, so she must have been at least 14 when she first appeared on the show.
"Debra was 14 when she started on Young Talent Time and she was 15 going on 16 when she ran off with the boom operator without anybody knowing, causing incredible havoc for us," he said.
Debra Byrne also intimates in the interview that there is history between her and John Young…saying she would prefer it if she never saw or spoke of him again.
John Young is furious about that quote too…he says he was comfortable about his own relationship with Byrne at the time.
"I have absolutely nothing to hide, my integrity is intact. I've searched my conscience and my memory and I don't recall ever being alone, one on one, with Debra in any kind of situation.
"We were a family."
That's right Johnny, and family don't always like each other!
