11/10 @ 6:15pm by Morten Nielsen

The BBC is removing programmes featuring David Walliams from iPlayer while it reviews allegations of sexual misconduct against the comedian

Little Britain, Come Fly With Me, and episodes of The Wheel and Would I Lie To You? have been withdrawn, alongside his appearance in Doctor Who

The allegations, reported by ITV News and The Guardian after a three-year investigation, include claims involving women who were teenagers at the time

Walliams denies wrongdoing and says he never abused his position

Little Britain had previously faced criticism over racial stereotypes and blackface before returning to iPlayer with edits and warnings.
