Huw Edwards's image and voice are being urgently removed from hours of BBC archive footage following his admission of accessing abusive images of children. Talks inside the BBC have focused on protecting future audiences from upsetting repeats of his most visible work.
The BBC confirmed the removal of a 2006 episode of Doctor Who featuring Huw Edwards and an episode of Great British Menu in which he took part. Similar actions were taken in the past with cases like Jimmy Savile.
Jean Seaton, a BBC history author, emphasizes the need for specific action, citing how deleting much of Jimmy Savile's archive made sense due to the nature of his shows, while considering Huw Edwards's adjacent role.
