Johnathan Ross and Russel Brand record their show, with Ross as a guest co-presenter, early in the show Ross jokes about an interveiw planned with Sachs saying "I had a go on his daughter" would be the sort of thing that Russel would say.

 

Russel Brand later goes on saying that he knows his grandaughter 23 year old Georgina Baillie saying that she had visited his home and she is a member of a band called the SatanicSluts.com

 

He then carried on saying "So don't mention that his grandaughter is a satanic slut."

 

Message One

Later on they go on to call Sachs on his phone in order to preform the interveiw when finding out his is unavailable they leave a message on his answering machein, in which Ross blurts out "He fucked your granddaughter... I'm sorry I apologise. Andrew, I apologise, I got excited, what can I say - it just came out."

 

Brand goes on to say "Andrew Sachs, I did not do nothing with Georgina - oh no, I've revealed I know her name. Oh no, it's a disaster."

 

After that Ross adds "If he's like most people of a certain age, he's probably got a picture of his grandchildren when they're young right by the phone. So while he's listening to the messages, he's looking at a picture of her about nine on a swing..."

 

Message Two

 They decide to call back in order to "appologise" only going on to say

"Andrew, this is Russell Brand. I'm so sorry about the last message, it was part of the radio show - it was a mistake."

Ross adds: "It might be true but we didn't want to break it to you in such a harsh way."
Brand goes on to say: "No, I'm sorry, I'll do anything. I wore a condom. Put the phone down. Oh, what's going to happen?"

Message Three
When they call back this time, they open with "She was bent over the couch..."

After this they decide to break out into song, some of the lines included "I said some things I didn't of oughta, like I had sex with your granddaughter..."

Message Four
When calling him back for the fourth time, they start out by saying
"Alright Andrew Sachs' answer phone? I'm ever so so sorry for what I said about Andrew Sachs."
"Just say sorry," adds Ross,
"I'll kill you," says Brand laughing.
"Don't say you'll wear him as a hat - just say sorry," continues Ross.
"Sorry, right," adds Brand.

From a BBC Trust report a BBC employee "on loan" to Brands firm vanity projects was shocked by the intial exchange but decide to reslove the problem with the content in the editing stage.

Ross said that consent to broadcast what was said would need to be gotten from Sachs and his grandaughter.
