BBC apologises after reporter is accused of homophobia for asking Andrew Scott about Barry Keoghan's penis size: 'We accept this question was misjudged'


The actor, 47, was interviewed by BBC entertainment correspondent Colin Paterson at the BAFTA Film Awards about his film All Of Us Strangers, co-starring Paul Mescal.

Nervously laughing, Andrew was not able to get away from the line of questioning, as Paterson continued to hound him - this time stepping it up by asking him about his thoughts on Barry's prosthetic penis. The broadcaster said Saltburn director Emerald Fennell and Sophie Ellis-Bextor - whose hit Murder On The Dancefloor plays during the final scene - also received a similar line of questioning. Sought-after Felix eventually invites down on his luck Oliver to stay at his illustrious Saltburn mansion for the Summer, igniting a season of eccentricity, partying and chaos - as well as an obsession from the latter to the former.
