BBC Boss Tim Davie Says He’s Not Hiding Huw Edwards Evidence As Fresh Claims Emerge About Presenter’s Conduct


BBC director general Tim Davie has given an interview to BBC News about Huw Edwards after the presenter pleaded guilty to child pornography charges.

In an interview with BBC News, Davie said the corporation is “not sitting on anything that I think we need to share with the police, or is of a serious nature that would make me feel that we hadn’t followed up properly.” His comments come as fresh claims have been published about Edwards’ interactions with colleagues, while pressure is mounting on the BBC to be transparent about the outcome of an internal “fact-finding” investigation into the news anchor’s conduct. BBC News reported on Thursday that Edwards sent suggestive messages to an employee, including a picture of his hotel suite in Windsor at the time of Prince Philip’s funeral.
