The British actor recalled how the 'predatory' comedian pulled his pants down leaving his private parts exposed then performed a simulated sex act on him in front of an audience of 3,500 people including some of the biggest names in showbusiness.

The degrading ordeal was captured on a special release DVD which is still available to buy on the internet.

Jeremy – who was once engaged to S Club 7 pop star Rachel Stevens – told how he had suffered years of torment after the incident even though he was the innocent victim.

Jeremy, 55, told how he had agreed to take part in a light-hearted Little Britain sketch alongside Walliams and comedian David Baddiel at the Hammersmith Apollo in London in November 2006.

But he alleges he was duped by Walliams claiming the star – who is now mired in a scandal of allegations of grooming girls as young as 15 and harassing women in the workplace – launched into the premeditated assault.
