Below is a clip of BBC news that hit the air waves...Discuss :p
[video=youtube;7citSnGZ_7s]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7citSnGZ_7s[/video]

Added:
Safety warning , start video from 6 seconds onward if your easily triggered.

I posted this as its a fun blooper and not as an argument on licence fee. My fault... I should have explained that :).

I think the BBC news team have become so depressed they've just given up on the news altogether. Or perhaps they should invest in a different operating system.

"Huw Edwards deals with BBC News at 10 technical glitch like an absolute pro
For four whole minutes the BBC newsreader sat in silence as the studio cameras rolled – and it was surprisingly calming"

Talk to any Brit ex-pat anywhere in the world and they will tell you how great the BBC is and how they miss it compared to the terrible stuff the broadcasters produce where they live now.


It really hacks me off that the Tories want to destroy the BBC, pretending it is a waste of money or biased, when in fact they just can't stand the idea of something that they can't buy shares in.


Hands off the BBC - it is a national treasure. ;)

"BBC News at 10 editor Paul Royall later explained on Twitter that the broadcaster's technical system had crashed seconds before going on air, forcing the director to switch to a back-up system.
FYI technical system crash seconds before 10. Director had to switch to a back-up system ASAP. @huwbbc doing great job #BBCNewsTen

Wow... look at the reaction from some people :eek:...

It was a miss hap, it was funny... and some people act like it's an attack! are lefties and liberals going to ban Blooper reels next? Lighten up [haha]

If i wanted to have a dig at the BBC, there are a lot more legit ways I just wanted a little fun (fun is banned).

The fact that you used a clip which started with whining about "we have to pay for this mess called the BBC" sets you up as not having fun but rather as having a dig.

You could instead have chosen this clip:

[video=youtube;CkDn6IYTfU4]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkDn6IYTfU4[/video]

...but of course perhaps that is just factual and doesn't have the opening critical comment.

'You could instead have chosen this clip'... So you wanted me to look around, for a clip that would not trigger you :p

You linked the "RobinHoodUKIP" channel. What did you expect when you linked a neo-alt-far-right channel for the hard of thinking?

i expected insults from people that live in a small bubble, telling each other they are smart.
saying how everyone else is dumb...

Reassuring them selves, and patting each other on the back.

Giving up arguing with that sort of person, because, in the real world, they are no longer the majority. people are wising up. I will just sit back and wait :)

The sort of people that leave university and think they have finished their education and know it all... No, the end of formal education is just the start... sadly this generation cant see that :(

And how about to not make a deal this big from a software error?

It's even more pathetic than the error itself.
