And following his statement, Russell's PR firm MBC PR and talent agent Tavistock Wood no longer advertise the 49-year-old as a client on their websites, however, it's understood MBC PR still represents him, writes The Mirror.Russell's reps have been contacted for comment.The father-of-two issued a lengthy statement denying 'serious' and 'criminal' allegations, which he didn't specify, but claimed are a 'co-ordinated attack by the media'.Russell told the camera that this wasn't his usual type of video and that he had received "extremely disturbing" letter and an email.He said: "I've received two extremely disturbing letters or a letter and an email.

One from a mainstream media TV company, one from a newspaper listing a litany of extremely egregious and aggressive attacks, as well as some pretty stupid stuff like community festival should be stopped, that I shouldn't be able to attack mainstream media narratives on this channel."But amidst this litany of astonishing rather baroque attacks, often very serious allegations that I absolutely refute.

These allegations pertain to the time when I was working in the mainstream, when I was in the newspapers all the time, when I was in the movies.
