Simon Rimmer warned comedian Sam Campbell to “moderate your language” minutes into the latest edition of Sunday Brunch on E4 after he used bad language live on air
A Sunday Brunch guest was forced to issue an apology for swearing just minutes into the live show.
Host Simon Rimmer was joined by radio presenter Yinka Bokinni, who stepped in for regular presenter Tim Lovejoy for the second week in a row, on Sunday (March 15) morning.
The duo welcomed guests Married at First Sight Australia star Lucinda Light, band Don Broco, comedians Maisie Adam and Sam Campbell, actress Andi Osho and singer Glenn Tilbrook to the studio.
Simon kicked off by asking Australian stand-up comic Sam if he’d brought a toy with him into the studio and the star explained it “wasn’t a toy” but a robot he’s been “working with” and “teaching human values”.
Sam later got out a remote control hand and showed it off to the other guests by putting it on the table and moving it up and down in front of them.
However, things didn’t quite go to plan though as the hand ended up on the floor, leaving Sam to let slip “f**k”.
Presenter Simon was forced to step in and warned Sam “moderate your language by the way” and the star quickly apologised saying “Sorry about that.”
Tim missing the show wasn’t the only shake-up as the show was aired on E4 instead of Channel 4 to accommodate Paralympics coverage.
The regular Sunday morning time slot has been handed over to Channel 4’s broadcasting of the Milano Cortina 2026 Paralympic Winter Games.
Last week, viewers were divided after Yinka made her hosting debut alongside Simon, one remarking on social media, “Not the same without Tim, you can’t have Ant without Dec.
“@timlovejoy too good for E4 then…?” queried another, whilst a third chimed in, “She’s a bit too loud! Missing Tim. #SundayBrunch.”
Another viewer concurred, “Never thought I’d say this, but not the same without Tim.”
However, there were those who were delighted to see Yinka at the helm, with one fan exclaiming, “Yes, Yinka.”
“Love this. I’m 100% tuning in,” shared another, and a fellow viewer echoed, “This is perfection.”
Sunday Brunch is available to catch up on Channel 4
