This is the best summary I could come up with:
Thames Valley Police said a woman contacted the force two weeks ago with “new information” in relation to reports of “harassment and stalking”.
The BBC understands the woman reported her allegations to Thames Valley Police numerous times between 2018 and 2022 but no further action was taken.
The comedian and actor has previously denied “very serious criminal allegations” and “extremely egregious and aggressive attacks”, which he said he “absolutely refutes”.
The investigation, which aired on 16 September, claimed he had also displayed predatory and controlling behaviour, and behaved inappropriately at work.
In a response to the allegations of “non-recent” sexual offences reported to the Met in September, Brand live-streamed a video on Rumble.
On the same day the Dispatches allegations emerged, Brand performed a comedy gig at the Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre in north-west London, in which he alluded to the claims but did not address them directly.
