Incidently I'm surprised that the BBC haven't packaged up some One Show reports as standbys/fillers. They're a good length, mostly timeless and non-offensive

I'd imagine there's probably a full-length best-of in case the programme can't get on air at all for any reason.

the BC wasn't affected by the fire alarm - I think they were just caught on the hop. The One Show gallery didn't give any indication of the out-point of their standby VT before bailing out, though I'm not sure why that meant pres were so late to bring up their slide.

(The announcements were live, btw)

Does anybody know if it was a real fire?

I assume the director was a bit pre-occupied and didn't notice it had ended and unfortunately it did finish with a fade out of a nightime shot!

Ahh OK. The wording wasn't great, although it did say that on the breakdown slide

Around 19:15.

Nothing here, so probably a false alarm?

@MissAlexjones: We're all safe and well!!! Somebody was warming their tea up and the microwave set off the fire alarm!

Ha ha ha #bigfail - if that's true - poor bugger that caused it! Smile
