Public Service Announcement - 2nd update

Coastguards turned to Jonathan Ross's Radio 2 show for help after a boat skipper blocked an international distress channel.

Dover coastguards said the crew left a microphone on while off the Kent coast, blocking radio channel 16, which is reserved for emergency calls.

Ross's radio show could be heard in the background so staff called the BBC, which made the appeal in a news item.
