Walliams fan accused of stalking

Vet nurse charged

A veterinary nurse has been charged with harassing David Walliams after allegedly bombarding him with gifts and explicit poetry.

The Little Britain star had complained to police that 26-year-old Sarah Bartholomew had been harassing him for more than three years. She is said to have ignored a string of solicitors’ letters telling her to keep away.

Bartholomew, who lives alone in Clacton-on-Sea is due to appear at Highbury Corner magistrates court in North London on April 29 on two counts of harassment.

She said last week: When he was on tour, which went on for months, I more or less followed him the length and breadth of Britain. I spend thousands each year but you can't put a price on some things.’
