Terrible Spoonerism, allegedly perpetrated inadvertently by announcer Charlotte Greene of the BBC ... in response to Phil's "pole dancing cherry".
Three boats out of Dover were having a race.
The tug to the dinghy said, “Is that a wherry?”
The third’s instant rage wiped the smile from his face.
“Oh, no,” said the dinghy, “a cross flannel cherry.”

Old Spike would have enjoyed this one.

Possibly the best committed on air in Oz came from one of our highly ( and rightly so ! ) respected newsreaders -- James Dibble, who solemnly announced that person X had been bitten on the funnel by a finger-web spider* There may be others more vulgar by far but he has never lived that one down.
