Chris Moyles could face a fine or even be taken off air over his latest language use.

Ofcom has criticised Moyles, as well as other Radio 1 DJ Scott Mills for their use of language, both in terms of swearing and inappropriate content.

Moyles' latest trouble came when he asked female listeners to text in if they urinated in the shower. His response to the floods of texts was: "Thank you very much ladies, I shouldn't really say ladies - you all pee in the shower you dirty whores."

Radio 1 has released a statement supporting Ofcom's action, saying: "Radio 1 takes Ofcom's findings very seriously. For some months we have been in discussions with Ofcom to ... ensure that Radio 1 meets the standards expected of it."
