Overview
- A pre-recorded Friday episode featured host Katherine Ryan and panellist Maisie Adam using the word “c**t” while discussing Sir David Beckham’s investiture.
- Ryan referenced reports of a 2023 email in which Beckham allegedly called the honours committee “a bunch of c----s” and the system a “f-----g joke.”
- Adam joked that King Charles could have said “Arise you c--t” during the ceremony.
- Viewers questioned why the language was not cut or bleeped and some called for Ryan to be suspended.
- The Mirror said it has sought comment from the BBC and Ryan’s representative as scrutiny of the programme’s editorial oversight continues.
