Capital Radio DJ Ant Payne has apologised for making an “insensitive and ill-timed” joke about Turkey during his evening show
Capital Radio DJ Ant Payne has apologised for making an “insensitive and ill-timed” joke on air about earthquake-hit Turkey.
Payne faced criticism from some on social media, with Liberal Democrat councillor Suzanne Nuri-Nixon urging him to “read the room”. “It was insensitive and ill timed. I would never wish to offend anyone from my shows. My sincere and wholehearted apologies.”"Do you not think it would be appropriate to apologise and offer some sort of explanation for the denial?" came one reply.
Two earthquakes of magnitude 7.8 and 7.5 struck nine hours apart in south-eastern Turkey and Syria on February 6.
