A number of black women have come forward to accuse Westwood of sexual misconduct which will be covered in a new BBC documentary.

 

At what point will the BBC finally admitted that sexual misconduct is rife throughout the organisation? Their woeful tone deafness on the Savlle drama suggests no lessons have been learnt.

I'm not so sure it is a BBC problem - it is an industry wide problem, and I'd probably go even further as saying business wide on a larger level

 

Westwood was pioneered throughout the BBC, but he had links with other media and within the music industry most importantly, which is where these allegations are coming from. The link with all these people who are being accused, is their influence within the industries they work in. Not cool behaviour at all.

I always found him to be cringey and pretty creepy so this doesn't surprise me, sad that he managed to get away with it for so long and had so many radio and TV gigs, but at least he's been found out now.

Tim Westwood has stepped down from his Capital Xtra radio show "until further notice" after sexual misconduct claims, the station's parent company has said.
