Jazz FM apologises for on-air gay sex noise incident

A radio station has been forced to issue an apology after listeners complained of hearing gay sex noises live on air.



Jazz FM's pre-recorded Funcky Sensation show was interrupted for around five minutes on Saturday night. Listeners took to Twitter to say they had heard sexual noises from an adult film being played.



JazzFM.com issued a statement, saying: “Unfortunately we had an unauthorised access to the live feed this evening which resulted in a highly regrettable incident. Please accept our profound and sincere apologies for any offence that may have been caused.”



Mike Vitti, station programme director, said: "There was unauthorised activity and behaviour in the studio which we take very seriously and we will be taking the appropriate disciplinary action against the individual concerned. In addition I will apologise to the Jazz FM audience at the beginning of next weeks programme.”
