Viewers furious over host’s risque Brand of humour

THE Brit awards’ return to live broadcasting on Wednesday night sparked hundreds of complaints about host Russell Brand’s risque jokes.

ITV1 had received around 300 complaints from irate viewers by first thing yesterday morning, and they are continuing to flood in.

First-time host Brand, known for his near-the-knuckle humour, poked fun at the Queen, Tory leader David Cameron and pop star Robbie Williams.
