The BBC has apologised after an 'unedited' racist outburst was broadcast during the British Academy Film Awards (BAFTAs). Tourette’s campaigner John Davidson, shouted N**g*r at actors Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo while they were presenting on stage. Despite a two-hour delay before airing, the moment wasn’t censored in the UK or in the US broadcast. A BBC spokesperson issued an apology for the incident saying: “Some viewers may have heard strong and offensive language during the Bafta Film Awards 2026. This arose from involuntary verbal tics associated with Tourette’s syndrome, and was not intentional. We apologise for any offence caused by the language heard.” ________ What do you think of this incident? Is an apology acceptable?
