Ofcom has said that a radio station breached broadcasting regulations by playing a song that featured “prolonged sounds of sexual moaning” at around 8.20am.
The Essex-based station, Caroline Community Radio, apparently broadcast the Chicago house track “French Kiss” by Lil Louis at a time when “children were particularly likely to be listening”.
Ofcom’s report observed the song contained no lyrics but included “prolonged sounds of sexual moaning lasting two minutes and 20 seconds”.
Ofcom said that, while the station’s target audience meant the likelihood of children listening was “low”, the song was “not appropriately scheduled”.
