Best radio gaffes ever!

I did one of those laughs where if I had had a mouthful (oo-er) of anything, I would have spat it across the room!

It just makes me really giggle....especially the way Andrew Marr did it, hehe!

I am guilty of saying "Oh boll*cks" live on BBC London during a match from the Oval. An Essex player dropped a catch while I was on air talking about a forthcoming game at Lord's and the word just sort of slipped out before I hit the off button on my mic.

I listened to the combined one so you hear one after the other. Did andrew marr say it on purpose or what? If not then he is more of an idiot that the other fella! I like how he tried to disguise it with a coughing fit afterwards

Nah, I reckon it was on purpose...lol.

I used to love working for Bristol Rugby. The old Bristol Footballer Geoff Twentyman (actually from ooop north, think his dad was an England player in his day)...was and I think still is the Sports Presenter for BBC Bristol Radio. He used to do matchday commentary from the ground and I used to give him phrases or words that he'd have to put into his show....It could be hilarious at times!

I did that a few times last year with BBC London when one of my mates was summarising. He managed to get the word 'shoogle' into one show which is a little used words from the Scottish lowlands. Several listeners emailed in and asked what on earth he was on about.

The pair of them got a proper fit of the giggles when they opened the note book containing the stats to find a large drawing of a peni$. One of the other players must have doodled it in there but once they started giggling there was no stopping and of course they couldn't tell the listeners what had set them both off.

love it, it's like backwards cockney rhyming slang

My favourite radio gaff are where they phone up a cheating girlfriend and dump her live on air after they pretend they where going to ask them to marry them. Its called Danny dumps. Heres a linky. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-kJZGC7_9Q
