13. november 2026 · 35m

David Walliams has been accused of sexual misconduct, just days after fellow entertainer Russell Brand, was sentenced to more than ten years in prison after being convicted of rape and sexual assault.

David Walliams has denied accusations of sexual misconduct.

Beth Rigby, Harriet Harman and Ruth Davidson discuss whether we’re in the midst of a cultural sea change and if this moment will act as a ‘reckoning’ for powerful men.

Plus, how much responsibility do employers have to keep young employees safe at work?
