Did anyone see the piece about these two whozzers, insulting Andrew Sachs, a man who escaped the Nazis in 1938. by coming to Britain. Making lewd remarks on an answer phone regarding his granddaughter.

I dislike Jonathan Ross profoundly, and although I am not a prude, I think he is a most dispicable person, and also Russel Brand the same.

How they can be paid such high salaries by the BBC, beggars belief.

I second all you have said Mo. The BBC have made an apology, but I don't think that's enough. To think thay are using our license money, to pay these foul mouthed over-paid talentless morons, is beyond belief. Their actions could have caused Andrew Sachs to have had a heart attack at his age.

It's too offensive to put on here.

I really dislike any prank calls - when I see the preview for that phonejacker programme it makes my blood boil!

I've no time for Jonathan Ross as I think his opinion of himself is way over the top, although I don't mind Russel Brand sometimes. Basically they're a pair of stupid little boys with no thought for anyone but themselves - I hope the BBC treats them accordingly.

Since they are both on massive earnings I think they should make huge donations to a charity of Andrew Sachs choosing

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.

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?

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 bet the credit crunch isnt hitting those two, its disgusting the way they have treated such a lovely man.

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

Whoops above in answer to what JR children may think.

he said the other night that he had to write a book to pay for house -who is he kidding!!!

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**.

I agree with everything that's been said!!!
JR should be shot!

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.

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.

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.

Sack them both.
End of.

Alternative comedy! NOT FUNNY - very juvenile and insulting.

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.

What makes Jonathon Ross worth 6m a year?.

BBC been forced to apologise, he should sue them
