SACHA BARON COHEN - BORAT LEWD INTERVIEW AXED BY TV BOSSES

BORAT LEWD INTERVIEW AXED BY TV BOSSES

A bungled TV interview with SACHA BARON COHEN's character BORAT SAGDIYEV was cut short after the funnyman's obscene antics went too far. Scottish anchor Carla Romano was interviewing the comedian's character, a seedy Kazakhstani journalist, when he grabbed her and pulled her into his lap - forcing producers of the British breakfast show to axe the remainder of their racy conversation. Romano says, "The interview was so rude - it was unadulterated filth. I was trying to keep a straight face and play it straight. He was in character. "He got a little bit too frisky and managed to grab me and I ended up on the man's lap. I wasn't particularly flattered but he has the strength of an ox and there was no point in trying to resist him."
