Mandeep Dhillon among growing list of actors condemning Noel Clarke amid sex offence claims 

One of Noel Clarke’s co-stars has referred on social media to the emergence of allegations against him, saying: ‘About f****** time.’

Mandeep Dhillon, one of the main cast members in the first series of his police drama Bulletproof, was among several colleagues to comment on the revelations.

His Viewpoint co-star Alexandra Roach tweeted that she ‘sees, hears and believes’ the alleged victims, adding: ‘Thank you to the women for your incredible bravery in coming forward.’

Earlier, Bulletproof star and co-writer Ashley Walters said he was ‘deeply saddened’ by the claims against Clarke, but could not ignore them.

He wrote on social media: ‘My thoughts are with the women who have come forward and told their awful stories.

‘I could never condone behaviour of this nature neither in nor out of the workplace, and whilst Noel has been a friend and colleague for several years, I cannot stand by and ignore these allegations. Sexual harassment, abuse and bullying have no place in our industry.

‘Every woman has the right to a safe workplace and moving forward I pledge my dedication to this.’

Jaime Winstone, who featured in Clarke’s breakthrough film Kidulthood, which came out in 2006, went on to Instagram to share the logo for Time’s Up, the movement founded amid the Harvey Weinstein scandal, which supports victims of sexual harassment.
