What Would The Beeb Have Done?

One of the senior Sky commentators Butch Harman remarked
after seeing a poor shot by Dustin Johnson 'That was a big mistake
but we all make them, after all I married my first wife twice'!

I'm sure Clare Balding wouldn't have married Butch Harman's wife twice, for a start.

[Mampara]

I was thinking about how Peter Alliss was forced to apologise
for 'offensive' comments at the Open.

unless the ex-ex-Mrs Harmon complains he'll probably be okay. (It wouldn't be unreasonable if she did complain, though - not nice to have your ex criticising you on telly.)

[bednobs]

perhaps he was paying her a compliment - the mistake was that he ever divorced her

[Cloverjo]

It was just a joke. Like the BBC-employed Terry Wogan referring to his wife as "the current Mrs Wogan".
