He's been stripped of his BAFTA Award.
TEXT:
Just a few weeks after accepting it, British actor Noel Clarke has been stripped of his BAFTA award and is the subject of numerous newspaper stories across the UK after more than twenty women have come forward to accuse Clarke of sexual harassment, groping, bullying, and sharing sexually explicit pictures and videos without consent.
The former “Doctor Who,” “Bulletproof” and “Kidulthood” star has vehemently denied all the allegations bar once making an inappropriate comment about one woman for which he later apologised.
After the BAFTA award was handed out in early April, numerous women broke their silence. They allege Clarke, who is married, is a serial abuser and uses his power to prey on and harass female colleagues.
Allegations include claims Clarke secretly filmed a co-star’s naked audition then showing the tape to other people, groping and exposing himself to female colleagues, and numerous advances of unwanted sexual contact. The accusers range from performers to crew to producers and interns.
BAFTA says in a statement: “In light of the Guardian’s piece, which for BAFTA provided for the first time detailed accounts outlining serious allegations regarding Noel Clarke’s conduct, we have immediately suspended the award and Noel Clarke’s membership of BAFTA until further notice.”
Clarke has been a staple of the UK’s film and TV industry for the past fifteen years and is currently starring in the series “Viewpoint” and the film “SAS: Red Notice”.
