ITV pulls final episode of drama Viewpoint following Noel Clarke allegations



ITV has pulled the concluding episode of drama Viewpoint from schedules after allegations of misconduct against star Noel Clarke.

The actor is currently starring in the thriller as DC Martin Young, a surveillance detective who sets up his observation post in the home of a single mother.

The five-part drama was broadcast throughout this week and was due to conclude on Friday night.

Twenty women who knew Clarke in a professional capacity have come forward with allegations in The Guardian, prompting ITV to announce it will not be broadcasting the final episode but will make it available on the ITV Hub.

Clarke has “vehemently” denied claims of sexual misconduct.

    ITV can't win there.

    They'll get loads of complaints if they show it.
    And loads if they don't.

    Because people can complain. But they apparently are incapable of changing channels.

    But it is the fifth and last episode.

    Are all the channels going to take all his programmes off catch up, box sets etc.

    Has he been found guilty of anything?

    No he hasn't
    I'll be honest, i've never heard of him and only seen what's been on the news but he has admitted he has a problem and needs some kind of councilling and apologised for his actions so somethings gone on looking from the outside , his career is in tatters too

    His comments seem to imply that he has acted inappropriately. although the extent of his actions are not yet clear.
    I am in favour of punishing those that have broken the law.
    However I am at a loss to understand what ITV accomplished by removing this programme from the schedule, but allowing it to be downloaded at the scheduled time.
    So those that wanted to watch it, could still watch the programme when it was due to be shown.
    A number of his programmes will be available in catch up, on demand, and cinema sections, are they going to remove these too?
    He is quite well known,
