Great British Bake Off host Noel Fielding says he is appalled by the horrible jokes he once made alongside Russell Brand, after clips resurfaced. In a statement to The Sun, the 53-year-old said he was horrified by Brand's crimes, knew nothing about them, and had only a professional relationship with him. Fielding is not accused of any wrongdoing. Brand was jailed this week for rape.
