Whatto! Peeps....
When is a sexual slang word not a sexual slang word? When it is an Italian cheese sandwich, according to a community radio station on the Scottish borders.
Brick FM was hauled before media regulator Ofcom after appearing to breach broadcasting regulations by playing songs which included the word "fuck" and "punani".
Station management defended the broadcasts, saying "fuck" was a "commonly used word in Scotland which is not considered offensive locally" and went as far to suggest that Ofcom was "unfamiliar with the local dialect where it is frequently used to describe fucking cars and fucking kids".
It went on to say a punani was a "sandwich sold locally and is made of Italian bread with cheese and tomato which is heated up".
Tallyho!
