\"videoHeadline\"\/Sunday Brunch: Host apologises after Jenny Eclair swears on air<\/p>\n

Sunday Brunch<\/a> hosts were forced to apologise after a guest brazenly swore while on live TV.<\/p>\n

The hit Channel 4<\/a> show returned to TV screens on Sunday (October 19) for another morning of food, laughter and music. Joining hosts Tim Lovejoy <\/a>and Simon Rimmer<\/a> were another batch of famous faces.<\/p>\n

On the long-running programme, the pair chatted to the likes of actor Nigel Planer, comedian Jenny Eclair, singer Miles Kane and West End legend Samantha Barks, and rock band Feeder also performed.<\/p>\n

However, things took an awkward turn when Tim and Simon sat down to talk to showbiz legend Jenny about her current tour, Jokes, Jokes, Jokes, Live!<\/p>\n

\"Jenny\"Jenny swore on the show<\/p>\n

Jenny – who shot to fame in the 1980s – has been performing up and down the country in recent months with the tour finishing later this year. On Sunday Brunch, discussing her show, Jenny said: \u201cI do punk poetry from the early days in this show.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut obviously I can\u2019t do it now because it\u2019s filthy,\u201d she added. Nonetheless, Jenny went ahead and proclaimed: \u201cOne\u2019s called t**s, the other called fanny!\u201d<\/p>\n

Tim and Simon were left shocked by Jenny\u2019s remark and put their head in their hands. Jenny then said: \u201c Oh I didn\u2019t know that was wrong sorry!<\/p>\n

\"Brunch\"The hosts were left with their head in their hands<\/p>\n

Referring to the Sunday Brunch <\/a>team, Jenny added: \u201cI did ask some other questions about what things I was allowed to say [on the show] and they just said no.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tim then said: \u201cIf you ever ask to ask what you\u2019re allowed to say and the answer is no…\u201d He then quickly issued an apology. He said: \u201cCan I apologise for the two words she said.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jenny responded: \u201cOh right, ok.\u201d She then turned to the camera and told viewers: \u201cI do hope you\u2019re not offended and if you are, do not come and see my show.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"C4\"Tim apologised to viewers<\/p>\n

In other Jenny news, the TV legend recently made a candid confession about marrying her partner of three decades, Geof Powell. The couple tied the knot in an intimate ceremony with just close family and friends in attendance.<\/p>\n

And Jenny\u2019s hilariously nonchalant about her big day. Asked by Mirror <\/a>whether she\u2019s glad to have taken the leap, she immediately fires back, \u201cOh no. No, no, no,\u201d accompanied with an assured shake of the head.<\/p>\n

\u201cMarriage is a stupid thing. It has to be done, though, because otherwise you die and all your money goes to the government,\u201d she explains. \u201cHad I known that civil partnerships for heterosexual couples would be legal within a year after I got married, we\u2019d have done that.”<\/p>\n
