ITV bosses had to apologise yesterday after Ruth Langsford swore live on air. This Morning host Ruth, 50, tripped over a cable off camera as she walked from the sofa area.
Her microphone picked up her exclamation of "f***!". One furious viewer said: "It could clearly be heard. She didn't say sorry afterwards. The kids are home from school this week so lots of them will have listened. It was not on and I will be speaking to ITV."
A spokesman for the channel said: "We apologise for any offence caused." A show source said Ruth, who was about to introduce a group of singing soldiers, was mortified that her swear word went on on-air.
The source added: "It was her natural instinct because she was in pain." Ruth later wrote on Twitter: "Really sorry for that slip This Morning - I stubbed my toe and unfortunately my mic was still on."
