Roy Harper

Singer Roy Harper has appeared in court accused of having unlawful sex with a schoolgirl.

Harper, 72, faced two charges of having unlawful intercourse with the girl when she was under the age of 13.

The folk star was further accused of four gross indecency charges involving the same girl when she was under the age of 14 and three charges of indecently assaulting her at the same age.

This will be good for a BSR film because sex is a running theme in most BSR films such as fish tank. Also this shows corruption of youth as it is with a schoolgirl and she is underage. If this is incorporated into a BSR film, it would generally be a authentic film. It suggest that the protagonist could be a victim of sexual abuse and her journey is about getting away from that life or accepting it. 

Horrific moment man is "repeatedly knocked over by his girlfriend" 

These dramatic pictures show the moment a man was repeatedly knocked over in a suspected hit and run.

Horrific CCTV images capture the moment the car - which was allegedly been driven by the man's girlfriend - hits him and knocks him back to the ground.

This is good for a BSR film as this can connote the themes of violence. Violence is one of the main themes that run throughout BSR films. This story shows obvious violence as the girlfriend knocked him over repeatedly. This can also be a protagonist as a violent person in a gang or something and abusing people by running them over. Possibly a murderer or maybe the victim could be the protagonist with people coming after him in violent ways.

He was rushed to hospital in an ambulance after the attack by the men as he finished his shift on Sunday afternoon

This is the moment a taxi boss was attacked by yobs - after he refused to order them a cab saying they were too aggressive.

This story can connote themes of violence and even social class clashes. This is because these guys had randomly beat this other guy up because they didn't do what he had said. They felt threatened by him. This is more of the theme of social class clashes. The protagonist could play as the person causing the violence and his life of violence. The protagonist could also be the victim. This is typical of a BSR film because it makes it more authentic to follow a real storyline.
