On Sunday, the BBC announced that they had suspended a male presenter and contacted the police over allegations that he had paid a vulnerable teenager to send him explicit photos over a period of three years.

Today, the corporation is due to meet with the Met police to discuss the matter, which is the latest in a series of sex scandals to plague the media company in the more than 10 years since the Jimmy Savile allegations came to light.

The alleged victim has also not been named, though their mother said that their child used the money to pay for a crack cocaine addiction which ‘destroyed’ their life.
