In the wake of the allegations, Channel 4 has removed all programmes linked to Brand from its streaming catalogue.Īn interview with musician Dannii Minogue has also resurfaced following the claims, in which Minogue describes Brand as a “vile predator”. The Sunday Times has claimed that multiple other women have come forward with allegations against Brand in the wake of the report, which are currently being “rigorously checked”. If you have information in relation to the allegations against Russell Brand which you would like to share with The Independent’s reporting team, please email.

In the wake of The Times and Channel 4’s investigation, the BBC and Channel 4 have pledged to investigate the allegations against Brand. The Independent has contacted a representative of Brand for comment. The clip has circulated on social media, with many praising Lock for his criticism of Brand. Lock then proceeds to do an impression of Brand, waving his hand in the air and saying, “Such a pleasure to be in your charming abode.” He continues: “Probably the reason I hate him so much is because I’m a dad, and I’ve got this fear that my daughters will bring someone like that home.” And saying to people who are disaffected already, and aren’t engaged with the political process, ‘Don’t vote’, is the most moronic, self-serving, pathetic bit of attention-seeking w***.

Speaking on 8 Out of 10 Cats, Lock says: “The main problem now is that people get the politicians they deserve, because they don’t take any interest in politics. In October 2013, Brand had urged people not to vote during an interview with Newsnight’s Jeremy Paxman.

Lock, who died in 2021 at the age of 58, is seen discussing Brand in the wake of the comedian’s controversial comments about voting. In the footage, Lock says that he “hates” Brand because of his role as a father, and “fears” his daughters would “bring someone like that home”. The clip in question is taken from the Channel 4 comedy panel show 8 Out of 10 Cats, and originally aired in November 2014.
