Former BBC news presenter Huw Edwards pleads guilty to making indecent images of children | BBC News
Huw Edwards, once the BBC’s most senior news presenter, has pleaded guilty to three counts of making indecent images of children.
He admitted the offences at a brief hearing at Westminster Magistrates’ Court in London on Wednesday.
The former newsreader was arrested last November and charged last month.
The charges relate to 41 images that were shared on a WhatsApp chat between 2020 and 2022.
Edwards was charged with having six category A images, the most serious classification of indecent images, on a phone.
He was also accused of having 12 category B pictures and 19 category C photographs.

Laura has interviewed Princess Diana’s brother, Earl Spencer, who has defended his claims about a phone call with King Charles.
He says the then-Prince of Wales said “we’ll forget her soon enough” during an argument over whether Princes William and Harry should walk in Diana’s funeral procession.
The Palace released a statement questioning his version of events, saying “grief can cloud reason, affect judgment and colour memory.”
So, what does the Earl Spencer say to that? And has this row become about integrity, and the right to tell Princess Diana’s story?

Scientists say they have discovered why the bacteria responsible for the UK’s worst outbreak of meningitis B in Kent earlier this year proved so dangerous.
More than 20 young people, mostly students, were infected in the March outbreak, linked to a Canterbury nightclub. All needed hospital treatment, while nine ended up in intensive care and two died.
Experts at the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) and the University of Oxford, who have looked at the DNA of the bacterium, say it picked up some genetic material from other bugs found naturally in the throats of some people.
This exchange created a new strain or variant that then spread between clubbers and caused severe illness.
