Résumé détaillé

'We have already removed content which features him from our platforms.'

David Walliams’ new fantasy feature movie, set to come out in early 2027, has been dropped by UK distributor Sky.

The movie, based on his children’s book of the same name, stars Walliams alongside Taika Waititi and Mia Wasikowska.

Now Sky has revealed that it will be pulling out, following bombshell allegations against the former Britain’s Got Talent star, 55, published by The Guardian and ITV.

The broadcast network told Metro: ‘The allegations made against David Walliams are extremely serious.

‘We have notified the producers of the film of our intention to exit our position as the UK & Ireland licensee of Fing!’

‘We have already removed content which features him from our platforms.’

The BBC similarly removed shows involving Walliams today, including Little Britain, Gangsta Grann and an episode of Doctor Who he starred in.

Walliams was publicly accused on Tuesday of exploiting his status as a celebrity TV personality to prey on women and teenagers.

The Guardian and ITV News spoke with 30 people who described alleged instances of sexual misconduct and harassment in the workplace
