- Multiple women have accused David Walliams of sexual misconduct as the TV star and author was accused of abusing his power to groom teenagers as young as 15.
- The BBC is in the process of removing some programmes, including Little Britain, while it carries out a review of “all material featuring and written by David Walliams on our platforms”, a spokesperson said on Tuesday.
- Walliams has been dropped by his literary agency, Independent Talent Group, in the wake of sexual misconduct allegations, a spokesperson for the company said.
- He was named as part of an investigation by The Guardian and ITV News on Tuesday, after he tried to obtain an injunction to prevent the reporting of allegations against him.
- The government has since expressed its “concern” about the use of injunctions and is “looking at what more” it can do about the matter.
