BBC director-general Tim Davie has warned that more stars could be unmasked for “abusing their power”, following the recent MasterChef scandal.
Speaking to the Culture, Media and Sport Committee in Parliament, Davie said that “we may see more things coming out”, after being asked for assurance that scandals related to abuse of power would end.
It comes just months after MasterChef co-host following multiple complaints from women over sexual misconduct.
Talking today, Davie said: “I think things have changed since we last talked to the committee, we are seeing people call it out, and that is a positive change, but it’s ongoing work.
“I don’t think you can change culture in six months and suddenly say nothing’s going to occur.
“We may see more things coming out, because in some ways I’m asking for it, and being utterly transparent and running towards the problem, that’s what we need to do.”
Davie was joined by BBC chair Samir Shah today as they were grilled by MPs over the corporation’s Gaza documentary, its Glastonbury coverage and the recent investigation into Wallace’s behaviour.
