Tesco has withdrawn an inflatable figure labelled "gay best friend" and apologised for selling it.
It comes a day after the retailer was forced to remove a Halloween costume called "Psycho Ward" from its shelves after it sparked widespread criticism.
On its website Tesco said "The Inflatable g*y Best Friend" was suitable for children aged three to four and was an "amusing gift".

"If SEX in the City and Will & Grace taught us anything, it's that g*y best friends are in this season," the description of the product said.
"We've had the manbag, we've had leg warmers and iPhone fever, now it's time for the new craze.
"Although not much can be said for his own attire, your Inflatable g*y Best Friend is ready to give you fashion advice, tell you if your bum looks big and b**ch about everyone who doesn't wear Jimmy Choo's."
