This isn't the first time it's happened to poor Tomasz of course.

I thought his best blooper was after the BBC South East Christmas Party in 2016, where he ditched the early morning Shipping Forecast to go and throw up.

I gotta ask how doe Tomasz get away with some of the stuff. He’s given the finger on air, cursed I believe and a few other things that caused “outrage”. Viewers and the Beeb must like him otherwise I think he would be out the door.

Tomasz is the best weatherman there is. I can't think of a better weatherman out there. Alex Beresford comes a close second if only Tomasz could do DOI and show off that body of his.

Actually I don't think that was the case here - I remember Joanna Gosling used to do the weekend bulletin on occasion but never the NC itself on weekends. Occasionally when the bulletin ended at half past the BBC one bulletin presenter would stick around to do the half past headlines before a program.

Still don't know why he just didn't do the forecast, if in doubt, just do it.

Tomasz is awful.

He does seem to take a strop ever time sometime goes wrong. Seems like someone difficult to work with. Needs to get over himself!

Do the weather forecasters have feeds from the nations readily available? I can imagine an entertaining situation where the forecast fails to get on air on network and Tomasz doesn't realise he's on BBC One Wales stood there like a lemon, or worse.

I doubt that very much, it seems there's more than enough 'self-op' for them to deal with as it is.

He really should have carried on regardless, with multiple platforms etc you can't be sure you're not on somewhere.
Such assumptions that you're not live have brought down prime ministers in the past !

My interpretation of the video was that he wasn't supposed to be on air but probably testing audio volumes with BBC1 presentation for the forecast immediately after the news bulletin. Seems like presentation made an error.
