We all make mistakes at work but when you\u2019re a producer for Radio 1 these can be big errors as Chris Sawyer found out.<\/p>\n
The BBC Radio 1 Breakfast co-producer noticed a rather embarrassing blunder on Greg James\u2019 show on Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n
He had made a \u2018typo\u2019 in the song title one of Avicii\u2019s songs, visible to the 4.65 million listeners who might tune into the show.<\/p>\n
Chris had accidentally written \u2018Silooettes\u2019 instead of Silhouettes, a song released by the late Swedish artist in 2012.<\/p>\n
\u2018I made a spelling mistake at work today,\u2019 he wrote, sharing pictures of the mistake and follow-up texts from listeners.<\/p>\n
Chris joked: \u2018But I apologised in the exact same place I made the mistake, so everyone forgave me. The end.\u2019<\/p>\n

Songs are generally kept in a system which automatically fills out the title and artist for each track, however, not all songs are on the playlist.<\/p>\n
The error happened during the 10-minute takeover, where listeners can request any song they want to be played by Greg.<\/p>\n
As Silhouettes is an older song and not already on the system, Chris had to quickly fill in the information manually before the song played.<\/p>\n
Listeners quickly picked up on the slip-up and were writing in to joke about the error with Greg, so to apologise Chris once again took to the song title space.<\/p>\n
\u2018Sorry for the spelling mistake \u2013 Chris,\u2019 appeared on screens, apparently as a new hit track by Zara Larsson.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
His hilarious apology worked as he shared a snippet of some of the responses he received from listeners. <\/p>\n
\u2018You\u2019re forgiven producer Chris,\u2019 wrote Lydia in Cyprus, while another said: \u2018Apology accepted Chris.\u2019<\/p>\n
\u2018We\u2019ll let you off\u2019, responded two listeners including \u2018Eric the trucker\u2019.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re not sure if host Greg forgave him but how could you stay mad with such a funny resolution \u2013 waiting for Zara to drop the single now!<\/p>\n
