UK Stabbings Suspect Previously Appeared In Doctor Who Charity Advert, Now Removed By BBC


The BBC has removed the 2018 promo from all its platforms.

Axel Rudakubana, now aged 17, has been charged with three counts of murder and ten counts of attempted murder following the attack in northern England on Monday July 29, in which three young girls died, and several were left critically injured in a multiple stabbing that occurred in a Taylor Swift-themed dance class. It quotes a Children in Need spokesman saying: “Our deepest sympathies go out to everyone impacted by this shocking case and we have removed the video from all of our platforms out of respect to them.” As well as the three young girls who were killed, two adults were seriously injured and eight other children suffered stab wounds in the attack.
