'I'm gonna be honest with you, I'm not gonna come here and go on a first date with a bird and say "d'ya wanna be me bird?"'

'If we're in a club and me pal says "ah look at that bird over there would you shag her?", I'd be like "nah she's a pig"'. 

However, not accepting Marty's justification, Anna stated: 'It's a bit gutter... You can't be calling women pigs.'

Marty's words upset show viewers, with many taking to Twitter to express their disgust.
