BBC Radio presenter apologises after hilarious blunder live on air

A BBC Radio presenter has apologised after accidentally yelling out a swear word live on air. It's the worst nightmare for radio presenters, that will happen sooner or later — you think you're off air, and you make an off-colour comment/swear, blissfully unaware that it went out to tens of thousands of listeners who may have been tuning in at that exact moment. This exact moment happened to BBC Radio Derby presenter Ian Skye, who was throwing over to the Kate Bush hit, Running Up That Hill. However, when the jingle for the station played… well, we'll let ye hear what he had to say. And don't worry, you won't have to listen too hard to hear it. The clip was shared by TV critic Scott Bryan, where it has since gained over 1million views on Twitter (X) — with people thinking that the clip, which came about because he suffered a cramp, was hilarious. 'Cheers, this is now my alarm ring tone,' one person joked, while another wrote 'starting a petition to make 'the sound of OH F*****G HELL' the permanent jingle for BBC Radio Derby. In fact the jingle for all local radio stations.' 'Worth the licence fee alone,' another quipped, while several others said that Ian made an 'Accidental Partridge' — a reference to Steve Coogan's iconic character.

That's probably not what I should've done.' Ian apologised for the snafu, admitting that it would've been hard not to hear it — joking: 'you'd have had to be deaf if you didn't hear a rude word. I really profusely apologise. 'You know, it just happens, and it's instinct… and my very very calm producer said 'you're still on the radio, Ian.'' Maryam Moshiri also had to apologise after she accidentally flipped off the camera when her news bulletin went on the air a second early, going viral. Pic: Twitter Of course, local radio means that not a lot of people would hear such a thing (unless of course someone screen records it and shares it to Twitter) — and sometimes, blunders similar to that can be made on national television. Case in point, when the BBC's Chief Presenter Maryram Moshiri was 'joking around a bit' with her producers as they were counting down, with her raising her eyebrows and giving the camera the middle finger before immediately changing into serious newsreader mode. 'Hey everyone, yesterday just before the top of the hour I was joking around a bit with the team in the gallery,' Maryam wrote at the time. 'I was pretending to count down as the director was counting me down from 10-0… including the fingers to show the number. So from 10 fingers held up to one. 'It was a private joke with the team and I'm so sorry it went out on air! It was not my intention for this to happen and I'm sorry if I offended or upset anyone.'

OH not involved in medical cannabis

Medical cannabis became legal in Kentucky on Jan. 1 for patients meeting specific conditions, but don't be fooled by the name — hospitals and traditional health facilities and pharmacies are not involved in the distribution of the cannabis. Owensboro Health officials are working to communicate that message to area residents to hopefully avoid confusion and consternation for their patients. 'It's a pre-approved condition, and for it to be approved, you have to have your doctor certify you, and you'll get a medical registry card on your phone that you can take to different dispensaries that are licensed in the state to issue medical cannabis,' said Jason Collins, Owensboro Health's executive director of pharmacy. 'While the state has legalized it if you meet those certain conditions and you go through the process, it's still considered a Class 1 controlled substance, which means its not legal for hospitals and health care facilities to store it, dispense it or use it. 'That is why patients are having to go to dispensaries throughout the state, because it's still not legal for healthcare systems to do so.' Collins said OH wants patients to understand its policies related to the law change, which also prevents the use of medical cannabis while at its facilities. 'The worst thing we want to do is have a patient come to the hospital and they think because it's medical cannabis, it's perfectly fine to use while they're here, (when) in reality, legally we can't do that,' Collins said. 'We really want to get this out to the community, the difference, that it is still a Class 1 drug, which eliminates the hospital, the health care system, from using it internally and stocking it and administering it. 'They'll have to do alternative therapies while they're in the facility. We don't want (patients) to think they can come in here and continue using it while they're here and then get upset because they can't. If somebody does come to the hospital with it, we'll have to follow our contraband policy, because according to federal law, it's still contraband for our facilities, which means it would have to be confiscated and disposed of. So we ask people not to bring it to the health care facility to avoid that concern.' Collins encourages anyone interested in obtaining a medical cannabis card to visit the state website at which has all of the information related to how to acquire a card and a list of providers who can certify patients. 'The provider can also go on that site to register with the state to be a certifying provider, in addition to other things they have to do to do that,' Collins said. 'Once the patient sees the provider and they certify them, they can go back on the website to do their final registration. It's all done on this website.' There are currently 10 Owensboro-based providers listed on the site as being able to certify patients, with nine of them advanced practice registered nurses. Collins said he's not aware of any Owensboro Health-affiliated physicians who are in the process of being certified providers. 'It's going to be up to each provider if they want to do it or not,' he said. 'We're not going to force providers to do it. We have great providers, and we want to make sure we trust them to make the right decision on what's best for their patients. If they do feel like it's best for their patients, we allow them to get the certification. I'm not aware of any that are doing it right now. We are being very neutral on it. It's up to the individual providers and their patients. 'The ultimate goal here is we want to provide safe care for our patients in an effective and compassionate way. We understand that patients have different needs. Staying neutral on this is the way to go.' Collins anticipates there will be changes to the medical cannabis law after the initial rollout. But he's unsure if that could ultimately lead to health care facilities being included. 'I think that the challenge is it's a new process,' he said. 'I think it's going to take tweaking over the next year. I think there are a lot of changes coming in the next year or so with medical cannabis. I think there will be more proposals or new bills, so I think we'll see a lot of changes. 'I think there are a lot of changes that need to happen. It's hard to get everything done correctly and perfectly (immediately). Hospitals can't go to a wholesaler for the medical cannabis, it's not FDA approved. I think this is an area that's going to continue to evolve over the next couple of years, and we're going to see a lot of changes.' But until changes are made to the law to allow it, Owensboro Health facilities will remain cannabis-free. 'I think the key part is education, so everybody understands the process,' Collins said. 'We want to be proactive on this so our community knows exactly what's going on and what to expect so there is not that tension created between our providers, our nurses, or anybody else in the community. 'We want to make sure this is very clear and everybody is on the same page.'
