Noel Clarke’s Defamation Case Against The Guardian Begins, Actor Says He’s Victim Of “Unlawful Conspiracy”


Noel Clarke’s lawyers said claims that he was a "serial abuser of women" were false.

In written submissions to the court, according to the BBC, Clarke’s lawyers said claims that he was a “serial abuser of women” were false, and that he was the victim of an “unlawful conspiracy.” The actor, producer, and director, best known for work such as Kidulthood and its two follow-up movies, has denied all of the allegations and said the articles have had a “catastrophic” effect on his career. Clarke is claiming aggravated damages for what his lawyers describe as the “relentless, targeted, vicious and persistent nature of the wholly unjustified defamatory campaign” mounted against him by the Guardian.
