BBCWho would have thought that a children’s TV presenter would have gifted me with my new favourite insult – fluttery cunt.
Yep, over 3.2 million people have viewed the clip of Cbeebies programme Show Me Show Me, where presenter Chris Jarvis hilariously appears to drop the c-bomb when saying the word kite, the Daily Mail reports.
Trust me, it’s still funny the 30th time you watch him so innocently and joyfully sing:
Imagine Imagine Imagine, you’re a fluttering ‘cunt’

As Jarvis scooted off into a playground shouting ‘profanities’ on a Wednesday morning, millions of parents stormed over to their bookmarked Ofcom tabs in a rage.
A video of the clip was posted to Facebook by a well-humoured mum who found it hilarious, but some of the comments from other parents weren’t as light-hearted.
#integrity…
@CBeebiesHQ If "Fluttering KITE" incident is true, then maybe CBeebies is made for "Grown Ups" – what happened to BBC Values?!… #integrity

According to the Daily Mail, the Cbeebies Facebook page responded to the backlash, saying:
It’s kite everyone, kite! We make shows for your little ones so it’s always going to be kite.
Quite a few people on Twitter are jumping to Jarvis’s defence, saying its just our dirty minds/ears!
So Chris Jarvis from cbeebies definitely says kite not cunt. Few dirty minded people need to get their ears checked.

love how parents are angry about #CBeebies :) I'm sorry, I've seen the vid & can tell that Chris is clearly saying kite not the other word

I think this might be a mood killer but it would be fucking jokes:
I wonder how many people are going to start referring to their girlfriend's privates as their "fluttering kite" now! #CBeebies

And I thought I was too old to enjoy Cbeebies!
