BBC New Year's resolution to not get in trouble – failed

If the BBC was hoping for a bit of down time over the constant stream of programming rows, it was sadly mistaken. Today's gaffe comes courtesy of BBC3 and its public-service-broadcasting-at-its-best show The Most Annoying People of 2008, which was broadcast several times over the festive period – an easy way to fill most of a night's schedule, Monkey guesses – and is still available on the iPlayer. The bit that has got some viewers hot under the collar, and prompted 13 complaints, came when "porn legend" Ron Jeremy described what he wanted to do to Lindsay Lohan and her gal pal Sam Ronson in a none too subtle way, while Radio 5 Live DJ Spoony described the couple as "munters and mingers" and said it was "cool" they had got together as "nobody wants them". The Beeb said the contributors to the show were "expressing their own views and opinions, which are meant in a light-hearted way with no malicious intent". Monkey can't wait to see what tomorrow will bring in terms of trumped up BBC scandal.
