Radio DJ Pat Sharp was let go from his presenting job last night after reducing a woman to tears by making a crude joke about her breasts after handing her a t-shirt with his face on it on stage at an awards show.

Mr Sharp, 61, who was the celebrity guest host at the industry event, 'humiliated' events boss Lizzy Eaton in front of 400 people at an industry event last Friday by joking about 'getting on your t**s', which she said made her feel 'violated'.

The star of 1990s ITV children's game show Fun House, who has hosted a show on Greatest Hits Radio since 2019, said that his contract was due to expire at the end of this month but he will not 'not return to the station with immediate effect'.

While presenting at the awards show, the ex-I'm a Celebrity contestant gave Ms Eaton a t-shirt adorned with an old photo of him sporting his trademark '90s mullet captioned: 'Pat Sharp - AS SEEN ON FUN HOUSE - LOOKING SHARP SINCE 1982'.

He then remarked: 'That's the only way I'll get on your t**ts today.'
