The three women we have spoken to are all making allegations about the men they were partnered with and said that they are speaking to the BBC because they feel they should have been better protected. One said she wants CPL to stop "allowing harm to come to people".

One woman said her onscreen husband raped her and threatened her with an acid attack. She now wants to pursue legal action against CPL

A second woman told both Channel 4 and CPL, before broadcast, about being allegedly raped by her onscreen husband. Her episodes were still aired

A third woman accused her onscreen husband of sexual misconduct.

“…the acid-throwing remark had been reported as a passing comment, not a threat…”

Excuse me, but in what context is that not a threat?

When the ~~BBC~~ Channel 4* wants to ignore victims so they can continue to make money.

Channel 4, not the BBC.

Admittedly it is usually the BBC:

A panicked Marge Simpson shouts, "Bart, no!" Next to her, and innocent Bart asks, "What?" Marge says, "Sorry, force of habit."

I think then it's time to mention an uncle that has strong feelings towards kneecaps. You know, as a passing comment.
