COMIC Sara Pascoe has revealed she reported a male celebrity to telly bosses after a viewer told her: "That's my rapist."
The 41-year-old said she'd been contacted by a fan after appearing alongside the man on TV.
Speaking on new Amazon Prime series Backstage With Katherine Ryan, she said: “Have you ever done a job and then someone's contacted you and said: 'That's my rapist'?
“I had it on a job recently where I've had to go to the channel, and it's that whole thing because you feel such a sense of responsibility but you also want it to be dealt with well.
"It's so complicated.”
Sara, who has appeared on 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, QI and Taskmaster, made the allegation after Katherine said she'd accused a telly colleague of being a sexual predator.

The Canadian star, 38, said she made the allegation in front of others working on a popular programme.
“I raised it. I called him a predator to his face and in front of everyone every day," she said.
But she admitted the decision to accuse him had come with its own difficulties.
“What am I supposed to do? It’s such a messy thing because I don’t have proof," she said.
