Surely ‘cock-up’ is acceptable on Radio 2, even if it is 10 hours before the watershed?
Sooo sorry to @RealKenBruce listeners on @BBCRadio2 for my little slip in the news!

not a word I'd ever anticipated using on the radio

It could have been worse.
@ClareNews2 @RealKenBruce Still nothing like as bad as this one from 10 years ago, though:https://t.co/SqHtg8eO32
