Brand rings host’s granny in send up of calls scandal

RUSSELL BRAND has called another grandparent on a radio show, sending up the lewd calls he made to Fawlty Towers actor Andrew Sachs.

Brand, who appeared as a guest on Absolute Radio, was asked by presenter Geoff Lloyd if he would give co-host Annabel Port’s grandmother a call, to show he could be nice to grandparents.

The grandmother, named by the station only as Lois from Southend-on-Sea, Essex, said: “I can’t hear very well unfortunately.”
