Richard Madeley told his Good Morning Britain colleagues to 'clean up your act' after one of his comments were taken out of context. It also came after Susanna Reid expressed her concerns that she'd have to defend the show against Ofcom complaints when things got a bit explicit in the studio.
Richard and Susanna were back at the helm of the ITV news programme on Wednesday (February 1) when they fronted a debate on swearing at work. They were asked whether turning the air blue should be banned in the workplace. It comes after a work tribunal where the claimant was told by the judge that the F-word was now commonplace in the workplace.
When they had earlier discussed the story with regular panelists Kevin Maguire and Andrew Pierce, both insisted they would never swear in front of their parents. Andrew said: "You wouldn't use that word. You wouldn't use it on TV anyway - whether it was the Ofcom rules or not. Because it is just decency and respect."
