HR interviews are under way through the BBC’s Call It Out process following reports from junior staff.

Overview

  • Adams has not broadcast since October 6, and Connie McLaughlin is covering the 9am–noon slot on BBC Radio Scotland.
  • A meeting on October 8 with head of audio Victoria Easton-Riley reportedly ended badly, after which Adams did not return to air.
  • The BBC declined to discuss specifics, confirmed she has not left the organisation, and cited robust internal procedures.
  • ITV says her Loose Women role continues for now, while her representative says no complaint has been presented to her.
