At the 2026 BAFTA Film Awards, Tourette's campaigner John Davidson's involuntary vocal tics, including a racial slur, led to controversy during the ceremony. Host Alan Cumming addressed the outbursts, explaining they were symptoms of Tourette syndrome, while the BBC later apologized for not editing the slur from its broadcast. Davidson expressed remorse, emphasizing the tics were unintentional.
