Tourette’s campaigner John Davidson has issued a statement in response to the media furore surrounding an incident at this year’s Baftas.

On Sunday evening, John attended the awards show alongside the cast and crew of I Swear, a film based on his life story.

Variety reported that before the ceremony got underway, the event’s floor manager told guests that they “might hear some involuntary noises or movements during the ceremony”.
