BBC release statement after on-air sex noises sabotage FA Cup coverage

The BBC's press office has issued a statement after sex noises were heard on air during a live broadcast.

The noises were heard during the pre-match build up ahead of Liverpool's FA Cup third-round replay victory over Wolves at Molineux. Presenter Gary Lineker was left red-faced by the incident, which appeared to be the result of a phone taped to the back of the studio set.

Lineker himself described it as a "quite amusing" sabotage, while a prankster has claimed credit for the act. There was also a quick response from the BBC, too, with a statement put out during the half-time break.
