J. Ross does that all the time I think

Remember watching the GB Olympics team being on his show, and felt so embaressed for them. You could see the shock on their faces, especially the females. He should be sacked from the BBC.

He's not in the least bit funny.

It was even more insulting that R-Brand,,gave a half hearted apology on air then proceded to add,--

* it was funny though*

They should both lose their positions with the BBC,,,

I've got a feeling, but will stand corrected, but as has been before mentioned, I think this is a criminal offence. I cannot begin to describe how I feel about this, and it is a good job I am signing out now, for quality OH time.

What makes Jonathon Ross worth 6m a year?.

BBC been forced to apologise, he should sue them

They've behaved very unprofessionally and I think they should get the sack.

Jonathan Ross is (I think) one of the highest paid of UK presenters and I've never felt he deserved that.

Just on our news that Jonathon Ross has had to write a letter of apology to Andrew Sachs, and the BBC have said that it was unacceptable behavour. Well, what are the BBC, as his employers going to do about it. It's our license fee that's paying all of their wages, so as has already been mentioned, a hefty fine should be imposed. If this had happened in the ordinary work place, heads would roll.

How can we teach our children to respect their elders when we have two high profile entertainers disrespecting one of our Senior citizens in such a disgraceful way.
I have never liked either of them they are talentless imbeciles who have taken a sadistic pleasure in humiliating a very fine old man.
They should be dismissed forthwith from the Beeb, and also the controler who passed it.

I have to say I like a laugh, often the more alternative the better but what these two said is way over the top in my opinion, i was quite upset for Andrew Sachs and hope they are to be punished for it.

Its about time these two" Pillocks" ( Being Polite ) were sacked,Their sense of humour ( If you can call it that ) is Rude,Crude and Offensive to most people.According to what I read, an Ex.Police Officer from the Met.said it was a Criminal offence what they did and they should be prosecuted.With luck they will be.But kicked into touch by the BBC.And loosing their rediculous wages,would do the trick.**M**.

Lets hope it doesn't become a case of 'like father, like son'

Whoops above in answer to what JR children may think.

It's an absolute disgrace, grown men acting like silly school boys, I can only imagine how upset Andrew Sachs must be.
flogging is too good for these morons.

I used to be a big fan of J.Ross in his early days, but now he's so full of himself and gets away with stuff others wouldn't! why do BBC think he's so great? he's not funny at all (in my opinion)

I can't listen to his Radio 2 show now as he just talks and talks, mostly about himself!..........and we pay Licence fee!!

Wonder what his children think,if they listen,of their father?

Read this yesterday, and thought it disgraceful. Jonathon Ross needs taken down a few pegs, as he's very offensive and the language he uses on his tv show is unecessary. Mind him and Russel Brand are quite well matched.

BBC denied receiving a complaints initially.
