Row Erupts After Peter Kay Swears At Liam Gallagher At Brits



Broadcasting watchdog Ofcom has received complaints over bad language in last night’s Brits coverage.

One complaint objected Peter Kay’s use of the word “knobhead” while the comic hosted ITV1’s live coverage. The remark was directed at Liam Gallagher after a predictably rebellious acceptance speech.

Gallagher swore and hurled a microphone as he accepted Oasis's award for the Best Brits album of the past 30 years for their second album, (What's the Story?) Morning Glory. As he left the stage, Kay remarked: "What a knobhead".

The comment sparked Gallagher to hit back at the Bolton comic today via Twitter, calling Kay a “fat f***”, and adding that “as a real northerner I was brought up 2 say s*** 2 people's faces not behind their back."

Meanwhile, a Facebook group set up in appreciation of Kay's remark has gathered more than 98,000 fans.

Gallagher sparked a second wave of complaints when he was interviewed by his wife Nicole Appleton in ITV2’s live backstage coverage. Just as the interview was coming to an end, Gallagher said: “It was nice, it was nice. Now can we all take loads of class A drugs?"

Ofcom will look into the complaints before deciding whether or not to investigate.
