The BBC is conducting an Urgent Inquiry into allegations that complaints made against Russell Brand during his time at the broadcaster were ignored. The investigation was prompted by claims that at least one senior executive was aware of the complaints against Brand but did not take action. Channel 4, where Brand also worked, has launched its own internal investigation and removed all of his content from its streaming platform. Brand is facing allegations of rape, sexual abuse, coercive control, and assault by women in the UK and United States between 2006 and 2013, all of which he vehemently denies.
