BBC Radio 2's Russell Brand makes an apology to Andrew Sachs after swearing on the actor's answer phone.

Mr Sachs, who played Manuel in Fawlty Towers, was expected to be a guest on a previous programme, but was unable to appear due to unforeseen circumstances.

Brand made an on-air apology on his Saturday night show ahead of a story published in the Mail on Sunday, but then made comments about the paper's wartime connection to British nazi Oswald Mosley.

  • Oh Russell :( Im genuinely upset he has resigned!

    I mean okay, he took it to far, & it got a bit unfunny. But it wasnt that bad. & it was quite clearly a joke.

    Also, Andrew Sachs could have had the common decency to answer the phone when he had an organised interview!

    & why did Sachs use the word 'devesated' to describe how he was feeling? Upset? Okay. Angry? Go for it. DEVESTATED? NO. What is devesating about it. Your granddaughers a slut, you must know that already.

    Bring back Russell!

  • We all have to do a Jesus routine now and again to make people aware of the control and the forgetfulness of the good people out there.

    Most of them are good people. Others like to be controlled by the elite.

    Bless you, RB!

  • Russ did NOT have to apologize at all. He was just havng' a little fun... What was so offensive about his prank call?

    Whatever. I love him.

  • He apologized and that should have been enough. He stepped over the line and thats ABOUT IT.

    People need to CALM DOWN. People have lost all sense of proportion.

    Brand is a very funny and consistently inventive broadcaster and we have now lost one of the best radio shows on the BBC.

    Thanks a lot Daily Mail!!!! You hypocritical bunch of petty minded morons.

see all

  • 1933 isn't the "late 30s". A more accurate definition of "late 30s" would be "Russell Brand's age".

  • Fuck Russell Brand.

  • what 2 idiots they are

  • Wasn't really much of an apolagy was it? Saying 'but it was quite funny though..' kind of takes the sincerity out of it.

    Still the media's overreaction to it was a complete joke.

  • @myownprivatevertigo The bit that was offensive was probably when he rang up an old man and laughed as him and his mate told him that he 'fucked' his grandaughter. If some teenage chav did it to some random old man i'd think he was a disrespectful twat. As it was two middle-age(ish) adults i think they were an even bigger pair of tossers who should know better. I still like both of them an i think Russel is generally hilarious but it doesn't change the fact he acted like a cunt in this instance.

  • Russell Brand you absolute babe.

  • i thoughtt it was wellll funnny!!

  • People are far too sensitive these days. Fancy getting offended by this. Did Andrew Sachs respond to this?

  • they should of released this episode, i never heard this one.

  • THE DAILY MAIL suck im not really a fan of russ but this got blown out way out of proportion
