Comic Relief deny ‘cutting out’ footage from Stacey Dooley’s trip to Uganda in wake of controversy

Comic Relief has denied they edited out footage from Stacey Dooley’s trip to Uganda, which aired during the charity’s telethon.

The documentary maker faced criticism after posing with a young boy from Uganda and posting it on Instagram, captioned with the word ‘obsessed’., with Comic Relief responding in a statement backing Stacey’s work for the charity., some claimed Comic Relief had cut out footage of the young boy she was pictured with – which the charity has since denied.

‘I got malaria probably eight or nine years ago now,’ Stacey said. ‘I was in west Africa at the time. Clearly it was a very different story for me, I was hugely privileged and we were able to get on top of it. ‘
