Top BBC Presenter Accused of Sharing Intimate Image with Junior Colleague
7 Aug
Summary
- BBC presenter allegedly showed junior staff member an unwanted intimate image
- Incident described as a "dick pic" that left the junior staff member "horrified" and tearful
- Part of a series of misconduct allegations against BBC stars, leading to a workplace culture review

A high-profile BBC presenter is facing allegations of misconduct after reportedly showing an unwanted intimate image to a junior colleague. According to reports, the incident occurred last month during a discussion between female employees about unsolicited nude images.
The presenter, who is among the BBC's highest-paid stars, was allegedly told by bosses to apologize after the junior staff member was left "horrified" and tearful by the so-called "dick pic." Two BBC insiders have confirmed the identity of the presenter, though the broadcaster has not named the individual.
The development is the latest in a series of misconduct allegations against male BBC stars, which has led to a workplace culture review at the UK national broadcaster. Published in April, the Change Associates review found that a small number of employees continue to abuse their power at the corporation. BBC Chair Samir Shah recently stated that "several people" have been dismissed in the past few weeks over their conduct.
The BBC has said it takes all complaints about employee conduct extremely seriously, though it does not comment on individual cases. The latest incident has once again put the spotlight on the broadcaster's efforts to address issues of workplace culture and abuse of power.
