David Walliams shows removed from iPlayer in wake of allegations

  • The BBC is reviewing and removing programmes featuring comedian David Walliams from its platforms following allegations of inappropriate sexual conduct.
  • Content removed from BBC iPlayer includes Little Britain, Come Fly With Me, and individual episodes of shows such as Doctor Who and The Wheel.
  • Walliams was publicly named after missing a Court of Appeal deadline to uphold an injunction that kept his identity secret.
  • The claims stem from a joint investigation by ITV News and The Guardian, with allegations dating back to 2003 from women who were as young as 15 at the time.
  • Walliams strongly denies the allegations and being a sexual predator, though he apologised for behaving thoughtlessly in past casual relationships.
