It's certainly not the first time that Jeremy Hunt's name has caused a slip of the tongue, but it'll always be funny when it happens.
BBC Radio 4 presenter Justin Webb accidentally referred to the Health Secretary as "Jeremy C**t" on the radio this morning.
During the BBC Radio 4 Today, Webb said “The paper says that Health Secretary Jeremy C*** … Hunt is understood to favour a cap on social care.”
Webb later stated that he had managed to swerve the Freudian slip live on air... but let's be honest. He absolutely did not.

If you wait for a moment after the mistake you can hear Webb softly sigh to himself, so we're pretty sure he knows he didn't quite "swerve" in time either...
Do you think he pulled it off? Let us know in the comments below.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
