James Corden has apologised for any offence caused by his jokes about Harvey Weinstein told at an event in Los Angeles on Saturday night.

On Sunday afternoon (USA time) he tweeted: "To be clear, sexual assault is no laughing matter. I was not trying to make light of Harvey’s inexcusable behavior, but to shame him, the abuser, not his victims. I am truly sorry for anyone offended, that was never my intention."
