Tim Davie says he can’t see Edwards working at BBC again

The BBC’s director general Tim Davie said he can’t see Huw Edwards working at the corporation again.

“This man has just been convicted of appalling crimes and it’s pretty straightforward in my mind, I can’t see him working here again,” he told BBC presenter Amol Rajan, at the Royal Television Society London Convention.

It comes after disgraced BBC News presenter Edwards was given a six-month prison sentence on Monday, suspended for two years, after he admitted charges of making indecent images of children.
