The news bulletin just before Housetrap this morning started with a little extra music than normal: here's how it happened:
BBC One baloon intro into news
Baloon ident music continued over the top of the news titles (both tunes going at once)
Darren Jordon started speaking but he was competing with the ident music for a good few seconds!
Unfortunately I didn't tape it but it was a hilarious baloons-up...

Not only 1 mistake like the one you pointed out but 3.

I got the one after Housetrap.

Does anyone want it?

The balloon music (well on CD) lasts around 35 seconds, unless BBC One use a looped version of the ident soundtrack which can go on for blummin' ages!

DNC1 & 2 Idents are not on CD, they're on video server.

All that happened was someone forgot to fade out the idents sound
