as posted by the channelNish and Coco respond to the drama of the BAFTA ceremony, as a racial slur shouted by Tourette Syndrome campaigner John Davidson was uncensored by the BBC broadcast.
The BBC and BAFTA have now apologised for their slow responses but the lack of immediate action is deeply concerning. Davidson - who was at the event as the inspiration behind the film ‘I Swear’ - experienced a vocal tic while actors Michael B Jordan and Delroy Lindo were presenting an award.
