The Met Police say that the offences are alleged to have happened between 2007 and 2016 and relate to five women.

Clarke is set to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, 21 October.

The charges come following an investigation opened in September 2025.

The Crown Prosecution Service authorised charges after a file of evidence was presented.

Detective Superintendent Mike Cagney said: “The women connected to these charges continue to receive support from specially trained officers.

“We urge anyone who has been a victim of sexual assault to contact police. The information you provide will be dealt with in the utmost sensitivity and we have trained investigators on hand to support you.

“Support is also available by contacting the independent charity, Rape Crisis at 24/7 Rape and Sexual Abuse Support Line."

Clarke has starred in a number of TV shows, notably in Doctor Who, in which he played Mickey Smith for five years between 2005 and 2010.

He then went on to build a successful career as an actor, writer, producer and director.

However, his career collapsed in 2021 after The Guardian published allegations of sexual misconduct against him.

Clarke denied the claims.
