Tonight, the BBC was inundated with complaints after the simmering sexual tension between Matthew Amroliwala and Louise Minchin was interrupted by news of the Italian earthquake.
Relations between the two presenters appeared to reach fever pitch when news suddenly broke of a boring old earthquake in the far away land.
A Facebook group named ‘Let Matt n Lou get it on!!!!11!’ currently has 300,000 members.
Self-proclaimed BBC News 24 super-fan Wendy McTuppence, set up an online petition which has attracted over 2,460,000 signatures.
“We, the real fans of BBC News 24, who make the channel what it is today, demand that the writers of the news stop pandering to the PC-left and allow the presenters to gaze longingly into each others eyes and indulge in light petting. Who cares about a load of greasy wops? We all know that this earthquake is just God’s judgement after they let Mussolini in. My friend Ada went there on holiday once. They put toilet roll in the bin instead of flushing it down the toilet! And they eat dogs.”
This scandal is the latest to rock the BBC in a week where forty million people complained after it was alleged that Jonathan Ross thought the word ‘fuck’ live on air.
A BBC spokesman issued the following statement:
“Sorry, I can’t talk now. I’m shaving my balls.”
[...] All because I posted this. [...]
