AN ACTOR has revealed how he was sexually assaulted “hundreds of times” by a showbiz paedophile who performed with Dame Shirley Bassey.
EastEnders star Stuart Antony, 34, has told how he “suffered in silence” during the abuse which went on for years.
Billy Nutt, who was once a backing singer for Shirley Bassey, was jailed for 18 years for the sick abuse against three children.
Stuart, who played a friend of Alfie Moon’s in the BBC soap, was abused by Nutt when he was just ten years old.
Speaking to GB News, he described how he met Nutt as a youngster.
He said: “So my mum worked in a pub when she was 17/18. He was in a band.
“He lived in the area where I grew up. I remember saying to my mum: ‘He’s a nice man. Who’s that, mum?
“She said: ‘Oh that’s my friend.’”
He continued: “At first it was that grooming process. It was very hard.
“You know, I thought he really liked me and was a friend. Clearly not.”
