He is currently being investigated by producer Banijay and has stepped back from presenting.

He does not recall it, nor accept that this happened.

Mr DAcampo is horrified to be accused of power play and an aggressive act.

He emphatically and unequivocally denies these allegations.

I have never been made aware of these matters previously and the allegations are firmly denied.

I would not do anything that I thought would upset or distress anyone.

This is simply not in my nature.
