Sevengate - The 15 year 'fake news' story exposed

PADDINGTON, U.K. - Oct. 30, 2018 - PRLog -- In 2003, a desperate wannabee TV Producer, attended an open day for Producers at NTL's media centre in Middlesex.  The Open Day was to give young Programme makers the chance to showcase ideas for television and get a chance to see a brand-new state of the art studio.  The Open Day was also attended by Senior Executives from Scottish TV, NTL, Clarion Television (hosting) and the Commonwealth Broadcasting Association.

The wannabee who called herself Charles Seven (real name 'Wendy' Jean Charles of Paddington, London was adamant that she had the experience and creativity to revolutionise the industry in 2003.  It became clear that she knew nothing about TV Production, had not documented or registered her  TV Formats correctly and her ideas were already on TV and Video, none of those present had any interest and the attendees assumed that was that.

Charles Seven had other ideas, unbeknownst to all who attended, she decided that her ides were worth a king's ransom and were stolen.  She got a high court case listed in which she attempted to sue Clarion, NTL, Scottish TV attendees.  She then claimed that her Intellectual property had been stolen and added her own lawyers to the suit and took the matter to court it was struck out.

Undeterred Charles Seven told her friends and supporters she won her case.  She skated over the fact that no financial award was given, no enforcement notices were issued and doubled down by announcing her triumph.  The story was a curiosity and all parties ignored Charles as a fantasist.

Matters turned sinister when not getting the attention she felt she deserved, she claimed that the 7/7 bombings, Charlie Hebdo affair and recent Grenfell Fire tragedy were some how linked to her and a malicious gang.  She claimed she was being followed, forced into hiding and had her bank account frozen.  She has created web sites and you tube channels making wilder and wilder claims.  The more unlikely the scenario the more attention she got.

For 15 years this industry wannabee has peddled a story that she was gang stalked.  She has embellished the original tale by linking terror attacks, harassment, banking fraud to her case and when debunked claims that those doubting her are part of the scene.  She developed her story shot and distributed video, faked recordings and duped dozens of 'supporters' to spread her cause.  A cause underpinned by merchandising and a small number of paypal donators.

With no respect for the victims and families of the terror attacks, no proof that can be seen or tested and a tenuous hold on reality, Seven sails on.  Her supporters don't care - it's a fantastic story – almost Hollywood stuff.  Whenever asked to produce documents, serve the enforcement notice or produce copies of these production treatments – Seven blocks the requests and claims she is in fear.

We pick the hoax apart and give Charles Seven her 15 minutes.  We ask psychiatric professionals to analyse hours of Seven on video tape.   With Social media companies looking to shut down sites that produce misinformation, we get their view on Sevengate, and request that they do not shut her down to provide lessons learned for other hoaxers. 13 years before the phrase "fake news" became common parlance, we show how a young mother with no discernible talent created and sustained one of the longest (though unsuccessful) running social media hoaxes ever.  The 15 year hoax – the story of Sevengate presented by Richard J Hannah as part of The all new Big H Radio Show starting  in January 2019.
