Football host Gary Lineker stated that the BBC studio had been \u2018sabotaged\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

UK broadcaster the BBC says it is investigating the circumstances surrounding a mobile phone taped to the back of a chair in a studio, which began emitting sex noises during a live football broadcast on Tuesday. <\/p>\n

Before kickoff in a match featuring Wolves and Liverpool, host Gary Lineker was interrupted by pornographic sounds while he and his broadcasting colleagues Paul Ince and Danny Murphy were previewing the FA Cup fixture live on the air.<\/p>\n

Lineker struggled to maintain his composure and quickly introduced another pundit and former professional player, Alan Shearer, who was stationed in the commentary gantry.<\/p>\n

\u201cSomebody\u2019s sending something on someone\u2019s phone, I think. I don\u2019t know whether you heard it at home<\/em>,\u201d a red-faced Lineker said to Shearer.<\/p>\n

Early into the match, former England international forward Lineker tweeted an image of a mobile phone which he said had been taped to the back of a chair in the studio, which he claimed was the source of the x-rated audio.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, we found this taped to the back of the set. As sabotage goes it was quite amusing,<\/em>\u201d Lineker wrote on social media.<\/p>\n

The incident almost immediately went viral on social media. A YouTube prankster, Daniel Jarvis, later took responsibility for the incident and tweeted footage which appeared to show him inside the TV studio at Wolves\u2019 Molineux stadium in advance of the match.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe apologize to any viewers offended during the live coverage of the football this evening. We are investigating how this happened<\/em>,\u201d the BBC said in a brief statement.<\/p>\n

Liverpool won the match 1-0 thanks to a goal from youngster Harvey Elliott, which Lineker described as \u201ca screamer \u2026 which was not the only one we\u2019ve had tonight<\/em>.\u201d<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
