The Guardian of accounts from 20 women of sexual harassment, unwanted groping, inappropriate comments made on set, sharing explicit photos and videos without consent and bullying. Clarke denied all allegations except for one, admitting he once made inappropriate comments about one woman.“In a 20-year career, I have put inclusivity and diversity at the forefront of my work and never had a complaint made against me.
If anyone who has worked with me has ever felt uncomfortable or disrespected, I sincerely apologize,” Clarke said in a statement to The Guardian at the time. “I vehemently deny any sexual misconduct or wrongdoing and intend to defend myself against these false allegations.”Following the initial accusations, ITV, Sky and the BBC all cut ties with Clarke, and BAFTA suspended Clarke’s membership as well as his recent Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema award.The CW, which aired the first three seasons of “Bulletproof” in the U.S., removed the show from its streaming platforms, including CW Seed, after the accusations were made against Clarke, and the show was ultimately canceled.
In March of this year, London’s Metropolitan Police said it would not bring criminal charges against Clarke and decided not to launch a formal investigation into the accusation claims. Clarke still has a defamation suit active against The Guardian.
