People are questioning the BBC's response to allegations of inappropriate behaviour against a high-profile presenter, with a second person coming out with complaints.

The second lot of allegations are from a person in their 20s, who met the presenter on a dating app and allegedly received abusive messages and was pressured to meet with them.

The BBC has confirmed it didn't speak to the presenter until last week, despite initial claims being made in May.

UK Correspondent Gavin Grey told Kate Hawkesby the BBC took only two attempts to contact the complainant.

He says the presenter's identity is still unknown but they are suspended.
