‘Doctor Who’ Star Noel Clarke Arrested on Multiple Sexual Assault Charges
Breitbart ^ | September 10, 2026 | Warner Todd Huston

British actor and former Doctor Who star Noel Clarke has been arrested on multiple sex-related charges after more than a year of police investigations.

Clarke was initially arrested last year on the charges but was released. Now, after more than a year-long investigation, UK prosecutors have levied several charges against him, including sexual assault, voyeurism, and exposure, according to the BBC.

Prosecutors said “sufficient evidence” has been amassed to officially charge the 50-year-old actor.

“Our prosecutors have worked to establish that there is sufficient evidence to bring this case to court and that it is in the public interest to do so,” the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said in a statement.

The London Police raided Clarke’s home in September of 2025 and were seen carrying several boxes of evidence from the building. Officials never released any statements on the raid at the time, but now it has been revealed that an investigation into the actor was launched in July of 2025.

While the UK legal system did not offer any information on the nature of the investigation, rumors of the actor’s behavior had been rampant for years already. In 2021, Clarke even sued the Guardian for libel for its story on the rumors of his history of sexual assault, based on claims from more than 20 women.

The actor sued, but during the trial, more than a dozen women testified against him and alleged that he sexually abused them, charges that he adamantly denied.

Clarke lost the legal challenge and was ordered to pay the newspaper around $4 million in court costs.

“This judgment is a deserved victory for those women who suffered because of the behavior of Noel Clarke,” Guardian News and Media editor-in-chief Katharine Viner said after the trial.

Yet it is curious that the UK is unable to make any arrests when the rapists happen to be muslim.

He would have gotten away with it if it wasn’t for Inspector Spacetme and Constable Reggie.

He was born in West London, but his parents are from Trinidad.

He was a supporting character when Doctor Who relaunched back in 2005, and was part of the first few series for the Eccleston and Tennant eras.

Not many Trinidadians are in mad mo’s tribe. The vast majority are Christian. Knowing this, the UK had no problem arresting him, even as a darkie.

I was born on the Mescalero Indian reservation. Does that make me Apache?

Never mind my name is Irish and most of my ancestors basically Vikings.

Dr Who peaked, in my opinion, with Tom Baker as Dr Who.
Been a slow and painful death to the series ever since.

“The actor sued, but during the trial, more than a dozen women testified against him and alleged that he sexually abused them, charges that he adamantly denied.”

Hmmmmm. Interesting.

Shades of “We beleive you, Anita!”
And who was that hag that accused Trump...? E. Jean Carrol..?

NOT saying the guy’s not guilty, but... I have serious reservations given the backdrop and the inconsistency of the behavior of the authorities.

Gonna make an example of this guy but ignore 250,000 rapes because of some dead Arab paedo...?

We stopped watching Dr. Who when they decided to make the doctor a woman. Before that we really enjoyed it, though the season before that was getting pretty weird.

Matt Smith is an amazing actor.

And Amy Pond managed to make a meter maid (or whatever she was) uniform hot. She could make Talarico heterosexual.
