Radio 4 gaffes call culture secretary Hunt a C**t
BBC radio presenters were left red-faced today after mispronouncing the name of culture secretary Jeremy Hunt… replacing the H with a C.
James Naughtie started it off by introducing the culture secretary on The Today Programme and calling him Jeremy Cunt.
Instantly realising his error, he tried to cover it up with a faux coughing fit… though he apologised 20 minutes later blaming 'Dr Spooner'.
And on the official Today Show Twitter account producers tried to laugh it off saying: "Yes, your ears deceived you. Move along now, nothing to see here..."
But that wasn't the end of it. Wile discussing the Freudian slip on another Radio 4 show, Andrew Marr repeated the gaffe right after saying he wouldn't. Oops.
