Graham’s ‘naughty word’ on Lorraine

It follows Graham accidentally swearing on Lorraine. He was telling a funny story about a run-in with police at the Winter Olympics in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Chatting with Lorraine Kelly on her ITV daytime show, the former skier said: “We’d always had a bit of a party afterwards. I was kind of enjoying myself and climbing up a flag pole and was untying the flag and all of my mates down the bottom, who weren’t, I thought they were down there.

As the interview concluded, host Lorraine apologised to viewers for Graham’s “naughty word”.
