Melanie Sykes claims TV producers failed to act after she complained that comic Leigh Francis made humiliating jokes about her to a live audience while they filmed ITV's Through The Keyhole.
Ms Sykes said Francis, 50 – best known as his alter ego Keith Lemon – made explicit sexual gags about her for three hours, including: 'I bet your a*****e smells of flowers.'
The radio and television presenter said the TV production company Talkback, founded by the comedy duo Mel Smith and Griff Rhys Jones, ignored her when she complained.
