Molly Meldrum drops F bomb at Logie Awards

AN EMOTIONAL Molly Meldrum has thanked those who helped him recover from his brain injury and managed to drop an F bomb at the Logies.

AN EMOTIONAL Molly Meldrum has used his time on stage at the Logies to thank those who helped him recover from his horrific December 2011.

As he presented Redfern Now’s Shari Sebbens with her most outstanding new talent Logie, the popular presenter made special mention of friends Delta Goodrem and Elton John who helped him through the rough time.

Unfortunately, Meldrum also used the opportunity to drop the F bomb during the broadcast. Attempting to mimic Graham Kennedy’s infamous crow call, Meldrum instead just used the actual word, before correcting himself and calling out `Faaaark’ instead.

Not that Australian viewers seemed to mind, in fact the reaction on Twitter was almost glowing:

@kyleandjackieo: Didn't see that coming! Good ol' Molly Meldrum... #Logies
@josiegags: Onya Molly Meldrum! Dropping the 'F' bomb at the #logies
@joelwerner: The genius of Molly Meldrum is that he hasn’t figured out he’s on TV yet.
