'Person X' asked about rumours of relationship 12 timespublished at 11:04 British Summer Time 14 June 2023
Dame Carolyn has just been asked about an earlier mention of "person X" being asked about the affair 12 times, and whether that amounts to an interrogation.
The questions were asked over a long period of time, she says, "not in one go".
There were a couple of formal meetings had with HR, but there were multiple informal meetings.
"The motive was to help person X" as the rumours were rife with inappropriateness at the time, which is why he was asked.
He had a good relationship with someone in production he trusts, Dame Carolyn says, and this person was the one saying "if we can help, please say anything".
