Allegations of predatory sex: David Walliams unmasked

10. november 2026 · 46m

Despite the best legal representation money could buy, Russell Brand was sent down for over ten years yesterday after a jury UNANIMOUSLY convicted him of rape. Today, again despite a lengthy legal battle and costly high court injunction, David Walliams was outed as the celebrity who had threatened suicide after allegations about him surfaced.

Victims came forward in both cases to journalists, not the police first. Are we seeing a cultural sea change? Is this MeToo Two? Or did it never really go away? And why are so many whistleblowers and survivors being silenced through the civil courts? We ask Zelda Perkins - who blew the whistle on Harvey Weinstein.
