Brand has been accused of rape, assault and emotional abuse between 2006 and 2013, when he was at the height of his fame.

The bosses of Channel 4 and the BBC are set to speak at a TV industry event amid rape and sexual assault allegations being made against Russell Brand.

Both broadcasters have launched investigations into the comedian and actor’s time at their channels, along with removing content featuring Brand from their platforms.

Brand, who used to present Channel 4’s Big Brother spin-off shows EFourum and Big Brother’s Big Mouth and work on BBC Radio 2 and BBC Radio 6 Music programmes, has strongly denied the allegations.

Chief executive of Channel 4 Alex Mahon and BBC director-general Tim Davie are scheduled to talk at the Royal Television Society (RTS) Cambridge Convention 2023 on Wednesday in King’s College Cambridge.

But it was this comment from Sky News presenter Sophy Ridge that struck a chord with the most people – and it’s 90 seconds very well spent.

I don’t know what happened with Russell Brand. He denies criminality.
 
But I DO understand why women might not report rape to the police
