That's how you handle a breakdown. Quick response, announcer sounding suitably caught off-guard, explanation of the problem, and not just parroting the text from the caption every 20 seconds.
That is exactly how the announcer should sound... as if they were watching and enjoying it too!

Found some old bookmarked YouTube videos and figured I'd share them here. Not sure if the third one's already been posted though.

The way BBC Three just gave up with the 60 second news.
Poor lady sounded really flustered.

Wait, did the technical problems only happen on Channel 4+1 or did the Channel 4+1 testcard just pop up because C4 Pres knew it would bug up?

Probably the latter since it's on repeat.

It wouldn't have broken up, looks like the circuit via BT ended so the programme would have disappeared instantly
It looks like they were just trying to cover up the BT caption and stopped just a bit too early, hence only a few seconds were seen
I suspect the picture began to break up at that stage so on +1 they covered that bit as well.
