Actor Noel Clarke’s claims that the harassment and bullying accusations against him were the result of a conspiracy between a group of people in the film industry and The Guardian newspaper “lacked any proper foundation”, a High Court judge said.
Clarke, 49, sued Guardian News and Media (GNM) over seven articles and a podcast, including an article in April 2021 that said 20 women who knew him professionally had come forward with allegations of misconduct, including harassment and sexually inappropriate behaviour.
