James Blunt gets banned
It seems that Gnarls Barkley may have had the right idea.
James Blunt, the little scallywag, has only gone and got himself banned from a UK radio station!
What caused this drastic action? How did he manage to offend the people of Essex? Some pre-watershed profanity perhaps? Well no, actually, they're just sick of 'im.
Listeners to Essex FM were not at all happy with the airplay devoted to Mr Blunt and sent in a number of letters of complaint to the station.
Programme controller Chris Cotton explains: "We don't have anything against James Blunt and we're pleased he has been so successful, but we really need a break."
