On Monday the Victoria Derbyshire show saw reporters revisit Great Yarmouth, a town which voted heavily for Brexit, six months on from the June referendum. Speaking to a number of locals who backed Leave and Remain, one reporter asked a group of women if they were still “excited” about the prospect of Brexit. “I think it has caused a bit of trouble,” one said, before explaining how neighbours of hers had moved out as a result of being abused due to their nationality.

Responding to reports, a BBC spokeswoman said: "The BBC is not looking to change anyone’s minds. "It is in the public interest that we keep audiences thoroughly informed and both listen to and reflect their views, as we did on this occasion with voters in Great Yarmouth."

The broadcaster told The Telegraph it had accepted the money under the EU’s framework programme – which aided research and development on certain projects.
