## Summary

Footage from the 2004 British Comedy Awards shows Jonathan Ross joking that the event, then 15 years old, was “probably going home with David Walliams”. Walliams laughed at the remark. The clip has resurfaced after he was identified as the celebrity who sought a court order to suppress allegations of sexual misconduct, bringing renewed attention to the claims and the use of injunctions.

Walliams denies wrongdoing and told the High Court he would kill himself if his identity were revealed. One woman, identified as Jade, alleges he sexually assaulted her when she was 15; another, Alex, says he first contacted her at 15 and that their sexual relationship began when she was 17. Ross said through lawyers that he did not write the joke but delivered it. Downing Street described the allegations as deeply troubling, and Labour suspended Walliams as a party member.
