BBC weather presenter hit by devastating fit of giggles after embarrassing caption error names her ‘ex-offender’.
Kawser Quamer launched into her forecast for the region as normal when an incorrect caption appeared describing her as “Aaron Ramsay – Ex-offender”.
Barely suppressing giggles at this incongruous title, Ms Quamer forges onwards, only for a second caption to appear, this time reading “Julie Cree – Throughcare Support Officer”.
With a laughing quaver in her voice, Ms Quamer nevertheless manages to make it to the end of the segment.
The instant fellow presenter Catriona Shearer appears on screen however, a third glitch occurs, introducing her as “Vicky Stewart – Aaron’s fiancee”.
BBC TV News Presenter Simon McCoy posted an excerpt of the hilarious stuff-up to Twitter yesterday, where it has since received more than a thousand likes.
Last month BBC presenter Tom Donkin appeared to get lost on set before approaching and addressing the wrong camera during a live broadcast.
You mean @KawserQuamer and @CatrionaShearer? Afraid I can't think what you would be referring to…. pic.twitter.com/MG2USCSvP8
