A second allegation has been levelled at an unnamed, high-profile BBC presenter, already accused of paying a young person, then thought to be under-18, thousands of pounds for explicit images.

The BBC has reported that a second young person claims the presenter sent them aggressive messages, after they threatened to expose his name online in relation to the original incident. Sky News has not yet seen these messages.

It comes hours after the BBC's director-general faced questions from journalists during his delivery of the Corporations Annual Review, as well as a live interview with the BBC's Sarah Montague.

It all comes days after The Sun broke its original story, which has been refuted by the young person at the centre of it as "rubbish".

On the Sky News Daily podcast, Kimberley Leonard speaks here to Deadline's International Investigations Editor, Jake Kanter, about how Mr Davie did under scrutiny from journalists, and what the BBC does next.
