    Russell Brand repeatedly made sexual comments aimed at one of the female newsreaders at the BBC.<\/p>\n

    The comedian, 48, has been accused of rape, sexual assault and emotional abuse following a joint investigation by by The Sunday Times, The Times and Channel 4's Dispatches. <\/p>\n

    The Times claimed as part of the investigation that they "watched and listened to hundreds of hours of his shows on the BBC, Channel 4 and YouTube to corroborate allegations".<\/p>\n

    The alleged incidents \u2013 which Brand strongly denies \u2013 are believed to have taken place between 2006 and 2013, during which he was a presenter on BBC Radio 2 and Channel 4.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    His radio show, The Russell Brand Show, was originally broadcast in 2006 on BBC Radio 6 Music before being moved to BBC Radio 2.<\/p>\n

    Soon after joining the station, he made a number of sexual comments towards a female newsreader, many of which came live on air.<\/p>\n

    Brand could be heard saying: "She's erotic that newsreader. Blimey what a sex bomb that woman is. I'm going to go in that newsroom one of these days and while she's reading…"<\/p>\n

    He added: "Do you know one of my fantasies?," before his co-star attempted to stop him from saying it live on their show.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    Brand continued: "Cos we're going to get under that desk and we're gonna unleash hell on your thighs woman."<\/p>\n

    The newsreader told senior colleagues that she was unhappy about the comments, however, claimed his behaviour didn't stop.<\/p>\n

    Brand said on another show: "The producer just told me that we've upset her. They've pointed out in the production side of our show. They go, 'she ain't got the right to reply'.<\/p>\n

    "We say all these things about her like, 'Oh yeah it's – she's doing the news. Imagine her just in her knickers."<\/p>\n

    Brand released a video statement on Friday (September 16) denying all of the allegations against him, saying his relationships were "absolutely, always consensual".<\/p>\n

    He said: "Amidst this litany of astonishing, rather baroque attacks are some very serious allegations that I absolutely refute.<\/p>\n

    "These allegations pertain to the time when I was working in the mainstream, when I was in the newspapers all the time, when I was in the movies, and as I've written about extensively in my books I was very, very promiscuous.<\/p>\n

    "Now during that time of promiscuity the relationships I had were absolutely, always consensual."<\/p>\n
