Huw Edwards should return the salary he was paid by the BBC after being arrested, the culture secretary, Lisa Nandy, has said.

Nandy said it was “wrong” that the disgraced presenter had continued to receive his salary between being secretly arrested last November and his eventual resignation in April – a sum of approximately £200,000.
