An episode of Fireman Sam in which one character appears to tread on a page from the Koran has been withdrawn.

A scene in the children's programme shows a fireman slipping on a pile of papers - and as they fly into the air a page from the Koran is "briefly depicted", production firm Mattel said.

The episode featuring the page from the Koran has never been broadcast by the BBC, but BBC News understands the corporation has received more than 1,000 complaints about it.

Stupid people are stupid.
