Recording surfaces of John Humphrys' 'jokey' off-air equal pay comments

British radio presenter John Humphrys' controversial off-air comments about the equal pay row at the BBC, which he has defended as "jokey", can be heard in a leaked recording.

The broadcasting veteran is heard to say he could hand over more than the entire salary of his colleague North America editor Jon Sopel, and still be "left with more than anybody else".
