A lecturer at Glasgow Clyde College is under investigation after videos emerged of him mocking missing Madeleine McCann and making jokes about rape.

Bosses at the college launched an internal probe after footage involving senior sound production lecturer George Henry surfaced online.

Students raised concerns over the content of the videos, which were recorded while George promoted his heavy-metal band named "The Colour Pink Is Gay".

The group discussed their song "Maddy" and called fellow band-mates "spastics" during the interview.

Describing how they make their music during a 13-minute interview with YouTube channel Metal Outlaw TV, the lecturer is seen saying: "We write rape in Morse code into the computer and see what comes out".

During the interview, George also explained to the presenter the meaning behind their tune "Maddy".

He said: "It's about Madeleine McCann .

"The song was written with the image of what was Maddie thinking when the boot was closing".

The band also spoke about their plans for a 22-minute long song based upon the story of Rudy Eugene - the "Miami Zombie".

Eugene caused worldwide headlines in 2012 after attacking a homeless man in Florida while naked. During the 18-minute encounter, Eugene beat the man unconscious and bit off most of his face above the beard, including his left eye.

The Evening Times reports that students feel their concerns about the lecturer were "ignored" by the college.


In a separate interview, this time with a channel called Tech Fest in 2014, George bluntly explained the meaning behind the band's name.

He said "The colour pink IS gay - there's no doubt".

The lecturer could be heard calling a fellow band member a "spastic".

He shockingly added that the same band member "also casually mentions that he rapes people" before joking that the group should rename themselves "Spastic Rapists".

In an epic climb-down after the foul interview, George then told the presenter: "I've got a really important job that I can't lose.

"Don't put this up".

A spokesperson for Glasgow Clyde College said: "We are aware of the online material and an investigation is ongoing."

The Daily Record has approached George Henry for comment.
