David Walliams leaves Britains Got Talent

David Walliams, a long-time judge on Britain's Got Talent, has announced that he will be stepping down from his role.

The news comes after a Guardian report alleged that Walliams made sexually inappropriate comments to contestants off-camera.

Walliams has denied the allegations, but has said that he will be taking a break from the show to focus on his mental health.

The comedian and children's author has been a judge on Britain's Got Talent since 2012, and has been a popular figure with viewers.

His departure will be a blow to the show, which is one of the most popular in the UK.

It is not yet known who will replace Walliams on the judging panel.
