Brass Eye say they did not trick boy
The makers of the paedophile spoof programme 'Brass Eye' have denied
"tricking" an eight-year-old boy into appearing in it.
A Channel 4 spokesman said legitimate steps had been taken to secure the youngster's involvement.
The programme prompted a massive number of complaints to the TV watchdog.
An article in the Daily Mail newspaper quoted the head of a stage school who accused the makers of 'Brass Eye' of tricking his pupil into appearing.
