The BBC has confirmed it is removing Little Britain and other programmes involving David Walliams from its platforms while it reviews all material featuring and written by him, following allegations of sexual misconduct.
A spokesperson for the national broadcaster said the review covers “all material featuring and written by David Walliams on our platforms.”
Review Underway
The statement added: “These are serious allegations. As such, the BBC is looking carefully at all material featuring and written by David Walliams on our platforms.
“We are in the process of removing some programmes, including Little Britain, whilst this review is underway.”
Doctor Who Episode Pulled
The Doctor Who episode “The God Complex” (season six, episode 11), in which Walliams played an alien called Gibbis, has also been removed from iPlayer.
Other projects, including Gangsta Granny – based on his bestselling children’s book – remain on the platform while the review continues.
This is a breaking story, with further updates expected.
