In a statement, Walliams said: “I would like to apologise to the people I made disrespectful comments about during breaks in filming for Britain’s Got Talent in 2020. It’s the last thing on your mind, but she’s like: ‘Yep, I bet you do!’ ‘No I don’t!’ I had a bit of a boner, but now it’s going, it’s now shrivelled up inside my body.” He then added: “I know, she’s just like: ‘Oh, fuck off!’ I was saying, she thinks you want to fuck her, but you don’t. Walliams reiterated: “She thinks you want to fuck her, but you don’t.”
When her performance was over, Walliams remarked: “She’s like the slightly boring girl you meet in the pub that thinks you want to fuck them, but you don’t.” The other incident occurred shortly after a female contestant auditioning on the same show had walked off stage. The recordings are understood to have been made for potential broadcast in Britain’s Got Talent or other spin-off shows, which often feature candid remarks made by the judges between auditions. His comments were picked up by microphones used to capture discussions between the judges when they are sitting at their desk in the centre of the auditorium. When he was out of earshot, the transcript suggests, Walliams described him as “a cunt” three times.
