Seven questions BBC MUST answer on Russell Brand from 'ignoring warnings to spending public money on teen girlfriend'

The BBC is under scrutiny following allegations against Russell Brand, including claims that the corporation ignored warnings about him and used public funds to support his relationship with a teenage girlfriend. Both the BBC and Channel 4 have initiated investigations after Brand was accused of rape and sexual assault in a joint investigation by The Times and Channel 4's Dispatches. Brand has vehemently denied these allegations. As the BBC faces mounting questions, here are seven key areas that need clarification.
