That will just be to keep up appearances.
They should make a stand against the sun instead.

dont think so, it was just russell doing his prank calling, they rang that guy up and it was his answerphone, was on for about 5 minutes and they were just having a conversation pretty much, then i think johnathan said something about russell sleeping with her etc, nothing bad tbh

It was pre recorded and checked and deemed suitable for the public.
So imo it should be the person who checked the content who gets sacked not them.

the whole show is pre recorded and then played a little while later. thats why its not only Ross and Brand that are to blame. they are both known for saying controvertial stuff and i dare say that is why they show isn't live. it will then be up to some editor somewhere to decide what goes out on air. he/she is as much to blame if we are pointing fingers. tbh i really couldn't give 2 fucks about it.

I hope the BBC sack them.
They'll both move to other channels and be all the better for it.

Russell Brand does annoy me, but sacking him over this is pathetic.

my mum thinks its disgusting 
Its a practical joke. People need to lighten up. Using shock tactics for radio humour has been around for ages. Anyone remember Steve Penk? Pranked everyone with fake injuries etc...
If anyone should be sacked it should be the editors, who didnt cut the materiel out the show. Im sure they have said worse thats been cutout before!

Exactly, some of the stuff Chris Moyles says on R1 is much more offensive then this tbh.

LMAO at the wee song they done 
Gordon Brown has weighed in with a comment as well, suppose there's not much else for him to just now with the economy in such a healthy state, the NHS running itself, Unemployment diminished and the fact his country aren't fighting wars with an ill equiped army

not really in russels case he did it before with the police and got compained at about that. imo he isnt funny and does stupid things like this all the time so deserves to be sacked/suspended imo no great loss as i cant stand the bloke

Gordon brown should be sacked for comenting on some pointless prank ffs (oh and his contribution to the economic meltdown, but more so the prank).
