The following is the text of the sincere and heartfelt apology broadcast before this evening's programme.
Good evening children.
The edition of RaW Folk broadcast on Saturday 18th October included a song that alluded to acts of a sexual, romantic, loving or otherwise objectionable nature.
Following the broadcast, RaW received two complaints. However, following an article in last week's Warwick Mail (just between the topless models and a sex scandal shame exclusive), RaW received a further 34498 complaints, meaning everyone on campus has complained about twice.
Vice Chancellor Sir Nigel Thrift pulled out of a crucial summit about whatever it is he does to tell everyone that he thought it was a bit wrong. This was clearly inappropriate and unacceptable, as he has more important things to do.
As a result, last week's edition of the programme (broadcast on October 25th) should have been suspended without pay but we were a bit late to notice and no-one gets paid (and there's a credit crunch on anyway). We would like to apologise to anyone who might have been offended and to all those pursuing an agenda.
Everyone must now be serious for twelve weeks.
Magic, Murder, Sex & Shipwrecks.

Lol... in the words of Richard Littlejohn and the Daily Heil...
"It's taken a seemingly minor incident to focus our attention on the way not just the BBC, but the whole of Britain is run."
WTF?
"If the Conservatives can demonstrate where the BBC can be cut back, without cutting services, then why not those other ravenous monsters such as the NHS, local government and Whitehall?"
"Why should we put up with being charged billions for a National Health Service run entirely for the benefit of the people who work in it?"
Yes, all those selfish doctors and nurses working tirelessly to benefit themselves (unlike those noble bankers, of course).
"No one would be disadvantaged if Radios 1 and 2 were sold off. Radio 3 could seek corporate sponsorship or go to the wall.
Those who want to listen to classical music all day can tune in to Classic FM or buy a CD."
Radio 3 listeners are the new enemy of the people? Clearly, I missed something.
But don't worry...
"At last, the secret people of England have spoken."
Words fail.
(And I don't even like Jonathan Ross.)
