Talking of outrage over BBC broadcasts, Torchwood star John Barrowman has had to apologise for exposing his genitals during a Radio 1 show aimed at teen listeners.
Barrowman was asked about his apparent predilection for 'exposing himself' during interviews by Switch presenter Nick Grimshaw. That's to say, the presenter asked "You're famous, we're told, for getting your willy out in interviews. Is this going to happen today?". In response Barrowman did just that.
Although it was a radio show (and before you ask, no, the exploit wasn't caught on the show's webcam), the BBC issued a apology for the routine, saying "we do feel the programme overstepped the mark".
Presumably wary of suffering a backlash from the print media, who seem to be looking for any excuse to further knock the BBC post-Sachsgate, Barrowman himself also issued a statement saying "I apologise for any offence I have caused", adding: "I was joining in the light-hearted and fun banter of the show and went too far. I was wrong to do this and it will never happen again".
