TIM Westwood’s alleged misconduct might have been prevented if there were another big name predatory DJ the BBC could have learned from, the broadcaster has said.
The BBC has stated it is ashamed and disgusted that it might have let a prominent DJ get away with claimed sexual misconduct, and wishes there was some sort of famous case study it could refer to.
A spokesperson said: “Tim Westwood was a popular presenter with a unique, larger-than-life style. As far as knowing how to handle this situation, we’re in uncharted waters.
“He made people’s dreams come true in his TV show where he converted shit cars into even shitter cars, and rumours about his behaviour have been swirling around for decades. Fortunately celebrities never misuse the glamour of the music scene. It’s just unheard of.
“Perhaps the best thing to do is to get Louis Theroux to produce a documentary which humanises him. He could visit Westwood in his home and get an insight into his everyday life. I know, it’s a crazy idea, but I’m just brainstorming here.
“Or maybe we could wait until he dies before we start taking these allegations seriously. We’ll have a long wait and it’s not a perfect solution, but hopefully it’ll ensure this sort of thing never happens again.”
