		</div><p>Craig Revel Horwood has apologised for his controversial comments about the rape scenes in Game Of Thrones.</p>
<p>The Strictly Come Dancing judge sparked criticism while talking about the hit TV series, known for its scenes of sex and violence.</p>
<p>He made the comments while appearing on Channel 4 comedy panel show 8 Out Of 10 Cats.</p>
<p>When host Jimmy Carr asked whether he watched the fantasy drama, Craig replied: <i>&#8220;No, I persevered for the first series until the dragon came on and that’s when I switched off.</p>
<p>“I liked all the sex scenes and the rape and I liked the cleavers through the skulls and I liked all of that, but I got very bored in the end.”</i></p>
<p>Irish actress Aisling Bea, who was also on the panel, commented: <i>“Am I the only one who heard that? What world are we living in? Oh, (Donald) Trump’s world, it’s fine, keep going.”</i></p>
<p>Craig said: <i>“I unreservedly apologise for any offence caused by my comments.”</i></p>
<p>Marilyn Hawes, founder of the charity Enough Abuse UK, questioned whether Craig should still be on a family show like Strictly following his comments.</p>
<p><i>“Craig’s comments are deeply disrespectful,”</i> she said.</p>
<p><i>“Rape is the most devastating and vile crime and I would have to question him as a person and his merit as a judge on the Strictly Come Dancing panel.”</i></p>
