I’m not sure how much of a scandal it was outside of those directly affect, but I was in the circle. A group of us, led by one of the younger drama teachers, went to the Edinburg Fringe Festival (a big literary, drama and comedy festival) with a bunch of short comic plays by Checkov (yes, really!). he was attractive enough that he had to make sure not to be alone in a room with a female student in case of rumours, but he was decent and would never had done anything like that. He got his wife and his brother involved too, which was cool, we all got on really well. We had a lot of fun, it was great, and, amazingly for the first time at the Fringe, didn’t actually lose money! (I think we made like fifty quid between twelve of us, so we didn’t exactly make a profit either, but it was an amazing experience)

Then his brother and his wife had an affair and ran away together
