Ant Payne has issued a grovelling apology after coming under fire for telling Capital FM listeners to book "cheap flights" to Turkey after a disastrous earthquake rocked the country and Syria.
The DJ, who presents the drivetime programme on the national station, tweeted an apology this morning after his comments sparked outrage online.
He wrote: "Hi guys, I want to address the comment I made last night on the show. It was insensitive and ill timed. I would never wish to offend anyone from my shows. My sincere and wholehearted apologies."
