Oops. Wrong take of Jon Craig outside Westminster with him getting his words muddled and exclaiming "Fcuk!"


Here is the video of his blooper if anyone missed it.

Very unprofessional of Jon Craig I have to say.


Not really, it was an outtake, it wasn't his fault it was shown. Whatever happens of air that shouldn't be aired but is, is the person who put the clip to air's fault.


Errr no that isn't the way it works. You should never swear, even when you make a mistake in-case it is accidentally brought to air. In my opinion, I also feel it is unprofessional.


Totally agreed! It seems that Jon has a problem when it comes to swearing. It was not the first time I saw him doing that on TV.


Any examples?

Hannah Tallett, she's been doing Sky News overnights for a couple of years or so. She apparently was (still is?) a producer and does Channel 5 News bulletins on occasion.

Do you honestly think that jon called mr hunt mr c*nt twice in a short period and all that not deliberately? I can' t comprehend why it is so difficult for an experienced jornalist to differenciate between a C and H?

Nicky Campbell suffers from the same problem!

I honestly do. He's also not the only one to have done it - Nicky Campbell, Andrew Marr and James Naughtie being the best known examples. Plus if it didn't happen accidentally, it's difficult to imagine he'd still be working.

Personally, I can quite imagine him sitting there after having made a genuine mistake the first time, with his head going ' siht, shouldn't have done that, I'm going to be in trouble when we go to a break, whatever you do jon, don't call him that again. Hunt not Cnut, hunt not cnut, hunt not... ' "Thankyou Mr Cnut." ' fcuksocks '.

Once you've made a mistake which you don't want to ever make again, it's quite easy to distract yourself into doing it again.

Oh, and rule #1 for live broadcast - assume every microphone is live and broadcasting, and adapt your language to suit. Supplementary rule #1a - If doing a bungie jump live during a breakfast TV programme, and the bungie centre staff suggest you have a go before doing it live so you know what to expect, take their advice.

Different start to the 4 o clock news as Kay thinks its 3 o clock. Not sure about anyone else, but my screen froze, and there was a graphic issue (not major) *
