On the BBC3 program "The Most Annoying People of 2008" there were comments made that can be characterized as sexist, homophobic, and bi-phobic in nature.
"Within the program, which was broadcast in two parts on BBC3 on 30th and 31st December, lesbians were described as "munters" and viewers were told that female Hollywood superstars should be saved for heterosexuals.
During the program, BBC Radio 5 Live presenter Spooney said of lesbians: "Let the munters and mingers get each other. That's cool. Nobody wants them."
He then referred to Lohan and Ronson: "But when they're hot and fit…you know what I mean?
"Hollywood superstars: they should be saved for guys."
Porn actor Ron Jeremy made several references to ejaculating on the couple" (Pink News).
