Bucketloads of C***.

Be sure to wrap up...



A BBC weather presenter bizarrely replaced the word "sunshine" with one of the most unacceptable words in broadcasting during a routine forecast.

On Saturday evening's BBC World weather forecast, Alex Deakin told viewers: "It is simply a lovely winter's day tomorrow, buckets loads of c***.... Sunshine across central and Eastern England."

Deakin has presented the weather on the BBC for the past five years, and after his giant gaffe tweeted: : "I think the less said the better about that last broadcast".

He added the hash-tag "#P45", which in Britain is the form workers fill in when leaving a job.
