A woman has accused Russell Brand of exposing himself to her and then laughing about it minutes later on his BBC radio show.
It also raises serious questions for the BBC about how that part of the show, which was pre-recorded, was allowed to be broadcast days later.
The woman, who we are calling Olivia, worked for a media company in the same building as the BBC’s Los Angeles office.
Olivia says she returned to her desk in disbelief at what had happened, and texted a BBC employee in the office about it.
“Further, the Director General has been very clear that some broadcasts from that period were, and are, inexcusable and totally unacceptable, and would never be aired today,” it added.
Brand resigned from the BBC in October 2008 after he and presenter Jonathan Ross left obscene voicemail messages for Fawlty Towers actor Andrew Sachs about Brand’s sexual relationship with Sachs’ granddaughter.
