Jeremy then said he had to be balanced as he worked for the impartial BBC, before getting into a satirical rant.The star said: “Frankly, I would have them shot. I would have them taken outside and executed in front of their families.”
Jeremy was then forced to apologise after the BBC said “the item wasn't perfectly judged”.
He said in a statement: "I didn't for a moment intend these remarks to be taken seriously – as I believe is clear if they're seen in context. If the BBC and I have caused any offence, I'm quite happy to apologise for it alongside them."The BBC's statement said: "The One Show is a live topical programme which often reflects the day's talking points. Usually we get it right, but on this occasion we feel the item wasn't perfectly judged. The BBC and Jeremy would like to apologise for any offence caused."
