BAFTA judge Jonte Richardson has resigned following the racial slur row which overshadowed Sunday night's (22.02.26) ceremony.
Filmmaker Richardson was a juror on the organisation's emerging talent judging panel but he has now stepped down from the role amid the controversy which has engulfed BAFTA after Tourette's campaigner John Davidson blurted out the N-word while Sinners co-stars Delroy Lindo and Michael B Jordan were onstage presenting a prize.
