Victims of Huw Edwards slam BBC’s double standards as it releases Strictly report but not inquiry into shamed presenter

VICTIMS of Huw Edwards accused the BBC of double standards for releasing the Strictly report while staying silent about its investigation into the shamed presenter.

The BBC launched an inquiry into Edwards, 63, last July after the Sun revealed he paid a vulnerable teen for sexual images.

Edwards, last month given a suspended jail term over indecent images of children, left the BBC in April.

The stepdad of the teen at the centre of our first story said last night: “It’s just double standards.

“I got a letter from director general Tim Davie saying they couldn’t disclose the report because of HR and GDPR and things.

“If Giovanni is a BBC employee what’s the difference?”

An ex-BBC worker who complained about harassment by Edwards accused bosses of acting quickly in the Strictly investigation “to save the show’s brand”.

They added: “At least those people have been updated.

“We have been left in the lurch.”
