A BBC Radio 1 DJ has been removed from the airwaves after drunkenly interrupting another broadcast.
Presenter Arielle Free slurred her speech whilst appearing on pal Charlie Hedges' show which was broadcasting from Ibiza on Saturday night (July 29).
Free, who had DJed for BBC Radio 1 on Friday and Saturday (July 28 and 29), had clearly made Hedges uncomfortable.

Hedges, 37, initially welcomed Free, 36, onto the station which was broadcasting her show Dance Anthems live from the Ibiza Rocks hotel.
Listeners were quick to notice that Arielle sounded worse for wear, with Charlie also telling her friend "you've sounded better".
She then said that "these things happen", adding: "You're out on Friday night and then you're out Saturday day, and then you lose your voice".
The 36-year-old then proceeded to call Hedges out on her song choices, saying she "expected better" of the DJ, immediately souring the light-hearted banter.
"I don't like this song. I hate this song. What are you doing. Sorry, what are you talking about," she hummed.
Hedges had been playing HorsegiirL's My Barn, My Rules, which then led to Free clapping back to her pal's music taste.
The Scottish DJ was on the airwaves for less than 45 seconds before Hedges took the microphone away from her.
Audibly annoyed, Charlie said: "It's my show Arielle, have some respect please."
The London-based DJ eventually told Arielle to "get out", leaving listeners bemused as to what happened in the booth.
The duo have previously worked together, having played a set together during the Women's FA Cup final in May.
The on-air spat eventually made its way onto Twitter, where several users branded the incident "embarassing".
Another listener said that Arielle would eventually regret her choices, adding "that's so cringe".
Arielle has since been taken off the airwaves for the time being, but is expected to return to her show next week.
A statement from a BBC spokesperson said that while it was unable to comment on individual cases, they "have strict codes of behaviour for staff and presenters, and any breaches are taken extremely seriously".
