Social media is usually the first place we turn to in order to gauge how well a show is going down with viewers. And these past couple of weeks, Twitter has been ablaze with opinions about one documentary.

Tim Westwood: Abuse Of Power aired initially on BBC Three last week but after backlash from viewers at being “hidden”, it’s now being re-released on BBC One tonight (4 May). The documentary is part of a joint investigation by The Guardian and the BBC reporting multiple allegations of sexual misconduct by the DJ. In the investigation, multiple women accused Westwood of sexual misconduct and claim “he misused his position in the music industry to take advantage of them”.

The report continues: “Three women have accused the DJ of opportunistic and predatory sexual behaviour, while four others allege they were groped by him at events.

“The earliest alleged incident took place in 1992; the most recent in 2017.”
