Bafta broadcast’s Tourette’s moment prompts BBC apology
BBC apologised after a racial slur shouted by John Davidson—whose Tourette’s causes involuntary tics—was broadcast during the Bafta Film Awards; the moment occurred on stage with Michael B Jordan and Delroy Lindo, remained on BBC One and iPlayer before being removed, and has sparked discussion about how to handle such outbursts and the need for a stronger apology.
