They should just end the programme and put a filler in it's place. It has now gone off air 3 times in around 20 minutes.


Any more bright ideas?!

It really wouldn't take much to whip up a decent apology caption. Shocking this has been allowed to remain in use.

To be fair, I posted that before the broken filler programme was played.

Technical difficulties finding the fader to duck the music while doing an anno too by the sound of it!

Try a simulcast with BBC News channel to see if anything works! and returning back to Lambing LIVE

That was the best breakdown I've seen in many many years. Fumbling announcers, playouts not working correctly, the works. Pity my PVR is up to other stuff at the moment :/

I bet they're starting to regret calling it "Lambing Live" - they could pre-record it earlier in the day and bike the tape to the nearest BBC centre for playout instead of trying to do it live and keep falling off air if they hadn't put "live" in the name.

No CA over the credits? Done too much overtime?

The programme made reference to the problems as it closed, so an anno would have been superfluous really.

Did it? They mentioned poor weather but I don't think they specifically linked it with losing the programme. I wonder how much if any of this programme will make it to iPlayer.

That's what I was referring to - I did say it was a reference, not a specific apology.
