David Walliams apologises for disrespectful explicit comments about BGT entrants

Britain’s Got Talent judge David Walliams has apologised for making “disrespectful comments” about contestants during breaks in filming the ITV talent show.

The comedian, 51, was reportedly recorded making derogatory remarks and sexually explicit comments about participants auditioning for the show at the London Palladium in January 2020.

According to a leaked transcript seen by the Guardian, it is suggested Walliams referred to an older performer as a “c***” three times when he was out of earshot, following an unsuccessful audition.
