Anyone else hear him mispronounce Jeremy Hunt this morning on the Today programme?

The poor man had to pretend to have a coughing fit to compose himself

If you missed it (or just want to hear it again) you can listen here: http://bit.ly/gpFF0R

Andrew Marr's at it now...

I loved it.

You can't beat a good old Freudian slip. >:D<

[KidKruger]

Yeah I heard that. What a classic.

Not only was he dumbfounded by his 'slip-up' causing him to stammer, but it affected his reading of the headlines at 0800, there must have been a sea of laughing faces glaring at him in glee.

Hopefully James Hunt didn't take it to heart, or maybe he gets it all the time, as culture minister..

As DeborahC said, amazingly, Andrew Marr has apparently immediately made the same slip-up when referring to it!

"What's happened to Freud is that he has moved from being a fantastic 20th Century Guru to an adjective"....

Fair attempt at a cover-up Andy!(tu)

Years ago when david Bowie appeared on TOTP with Tin Machine people complained (in hteir droves) about a close up shot of the drummer's hands with the treaded c - word tattoed on his knuckled, however they were wrong as he was called Hunt (Sales ?) and he had his name tattoed on his knuckles - stupid man, stupid viewers, stupid stunt

[dbboy]

didn't he mis pronounce the h as a c
