Beyonce Knowles' new single Check It Out has been blamed for an outbreak of epileptic fits in British television viewers.

The video, which contains a multitude of flashing images, caused a stir after it was aired without an appropriate warning by cable channel Chart Show TV.

After an investigation by broadcasting standards regulator Ofcom, network staff were ordered to undergo retraining to ensure the situation never happens again.

Although the Crazy In Love singer is not responsible for the network's mishap she has told fans she is "sorry" for any distress caused.
