Comic Relief viewers say Ofcom is "gonna have a field day" after Naga Munchetty "swore" during the show.
The annual BBC telethon, which was aired on Friday evening, featured broadcasters reading out cringy jokes from a card. During the segment, Naga, Piers Morgan, Susanna Reid and Krishnan Guru-Murthy were given cards to read from.
At one point, Piers read out: "The other day I bought a thesaurus but when I got home and opened it all the pages were blank...I have no words to describe how angry I am."

BBC Breakfast star Naga got involved and told a classic joke. "I went to the zoo the other day, there was only one dog in it. It was a Shih Tzu," she said. Her co-star Charlie Stayt immediately got the joke but Naga was still figuring it out.
After telling Charlie she didn't get it, she finally laughed and repeated the word "Shih Tzu," which sounded like something else. Viewers immediately took to the comment section to share their opinions, reports The Mirror.
"Oop a kind of swear word before 9pm, Ofcom is gonna have a field day with complaints," one user joked. Another viewer loved the joke and said: " "Naga not getting the shih tzu joke," while adding several laughing face emojis.
One user added clapping emojis to his tweet after hearing the joke. Comic Relief had the likes of David Tennant, AJ Odudu, Joel Dommett, Zoe Ball and Paddy McGuinness hosting the telethon.
Viewers got to watch hilarious skits for The Traitors as well as The Apprentice, EastEnders and more. A few other celebrities made brief appearances, including Gordon Ramsay, Jamie Dornan and Ed Sheeran.
