The BBC is facing mounting accusations that it has failed to report impartially on transgender issues. 

A formal complaint has been sent to Ofcom by the Bayswater Support Group, which represents hundreds of parents who believe the broadcaster has promoted one-sided coverage of sex and gender. The group accuses senior editors of failing to reflect dissenting views, glossing over safeguarding concerns, and presenting gender identity as an uncontested fact.

Camilla and Tim Stanley are joined by parents of two young people who socially transitioned as teenagers. They describe how their children’s gender identities were affirmed at school during the Covid pandemic - in some cases without parental knowledge - and the lasting impact it has had on their families as the relationship with their children broke down.

They also discusses leaked allegations that the BBC’s coverage has been subject to internal censorship, alongside examples cited by critics - from reporting on puberty blockers to children’s television and drama - and the corporation’s response to claims of bias.
