Ok, its time for a thread on news bloopers. One of the ones that has been doing the rounds in recent days is this...

Is there an existing thread for skynews bloopers?

No and dear god there doesn't need to be one.


I think this can be closed now.

I don't think so:

There doesn't seem to be, you could set up a general News Bloopers thread though. That would be quite interesting actually.

I hardly think there are going to be enough bloopers let alone enough interest in those bloopers to sustain a thread dedicated to those specifically from SKY...

phil94, it's interesting that this stuff is going out and it warrants a mention, but we know people exist when we're not meant to see them, so we don't really need photos unless something really interesting happens such as the presenters start talking about their fears of obsessive forum posters.

This is what happens normally. It's just for whatever reason the international feed isn't getting switched away from the studio output. If the studio realised, they'd probably be cutting to black or a slide by now. A presenter drinking from a glass of water while he is off air is no more a blooper than the audio being missing from the start of a programme - both are technical faults.

Please stop posting these images of people behaving in a completely normal manner. If one of the presenters starts dancing on the desk during a break, that would be noteworthy, but someone putting on their glasses to read a sheet of paper IS NOT .

There are several videos on youtube where presenters get their make up too early or don't realise they are on air. Those videos are ALWAYS titled as bloopers and this is exactly the same!

Bloopers or not (which they aren't as they ain't being broadcast, and they are only a few studio shots), no-one is interested in your stupid images so please stop posting them. It's obsessive.

What site can I watch this international feed? I would actually like to see what goes on during the breaks, as mundane as they can be.

It's not though is it? This is off air footage that is being shown on an international web stream, with no audio, in place of an ad break. Not on air live mishaps.

And it's boring.

I think you are only able to watch this if you are beyond the UK. This is the live stream on skynews.com, where formerly only the headlines were broadcasted. But you can try to find a live stream where the old skynews logo appears on the top left, with no onscreen graphics. Then you have the right stream.
