The disgraced comedian and actor reportedly walked around naked in front of colleagues and asking runners to get the phone numbers of women in the audience.
Russell Brand’s behaviour was tolerated by television bosses as “Russell being Russell”, despite informal complaints being raised, according to an investigation.
There were no formal complaints about his behaviour, but findings released by Lewis Silkin LLP, the law firm appointed to the case, said that informal complaints were made and were “not properly escalated or adequately addressed”. His behaviour included having sexual relationships with audience members and some colleagues on the shows and sometimes being naked in front of Endemol staff, with evidence suggesting it was “tolerated as ‘Russell being Russell”’, according to the report.
The investigation also found evidence indicating that Endemol staff felt “largely unable to raise concerns about Brand due to: his role as talent, a view that Brand’s behaviour was tolerated by senior people, a fear of not being listened to, and/or concern for their job security”.
