Romping sex noises isn’t exactly what people expect to hear when tuning in to watch a soccer game. The BBC has since apologized after pornographic noises were played on air during live coverage of an FA Cup match.
The noises interrupted the coverage presented by former England striker Gary Lineker before the match between Wolverhampton and Liverpool at Molineux Stadium. The BBC was not impressed with the prank and they issued a statement saying: “We apologize to any viewers offended during the live coverage of the football this evening.”
It was later discovered that a cell phone was to blame as it was “taped to the back of the set” inside the stadium. “Well, we found this taped to the back of the set. As sabotage goes it was quite amusing, Lineker wrote on Twitter.
A self-ascribed YouTube prankster, who calls himself “Jarvo,” claims that he was the one behind the stunt. He shared a video of himself calling the phone to activate the sounds heard in the broadcast.
This isn’t the first time that Jarvo, aka Daniel Jarvis, has caused trouble at a soccer game before. He was banned in October from all sporting events in England and Wales for two years after running onto the pitch during a cricket test match between England and India in September 2021.
