Radio 1's hip hop guru Tim Westwood is being challenged by an online pressure group (Westwoodwatchdog.org) who are accusing the hugely popular DJ of commercial impropriety and, according to Mix Mag, "promoting gun use".

Ironically, Westwood, who was himself shot and wounded in a South London drive by shooting several years ago, also revealed in the same issue that his favourite way to relax is clay pigeon shooting.

"I love it," the 40 something bishop's son revealed. "I'm getting my shotgun licence and then I'll get lots of impressive shotguns."
