Does US news not have reporters overseas? I’m a bit confused why you are confused!

The BBC is not only the oldest broadcasting network in the world it is probably the biggest. Its new coverage is incedible. Though not a blooper as such but unscripted was when a reporter who was doing a piece live from the Oscars was wearing a beautiful outfit with a VERY plunging neckline. When she handed back to the studio Micheal Burke said 'That was our reporter xxxx live at the Oscars in the best supporting dress catagory.

I watched that at the time, it was called "Pot Black", and a very funny slip of the tongue. I think I was around 15, and few people had colour TV then.

[@nightowlnzab]

The first bit (and subsequent camera antics) was their new studio, with all automated cameras on pre-programmed paths and settings, but obviously they had a lot of trouble getting that system working properly. 😅

[@lloydcollins6337]

That also explains the re-running of the "breaking news beats" and titles because the system crashed and kept playing all the titles rather than counting in or showing the content.

[@tomboychick]

The reason why we kept seeing so many empty chairs, is because the news studio had installed a new, automated camera system, operated remotely. When it was first installed, the system had quite a few gremlins, which took a while to eek out, so for a few weeks, the presenters had to keep moving from standing up (when they were meant do be doing a presentation with diagrams or braking down a story into a simplified format) to sitting back behind the desk, where they read the headlines, and the more serious news items. In Huw Edwards's case, the gremlins threw a party for the 6 0'Clock broadcast. He was then due on air, but the gallery were telling him in his earpiece that everything had gone nuts, so they had no idea if the nation could see him or not. That's why he stayed quite still, as he had no idea when he would be able to start, or how much the public could see of him. This, since I remember watching it at the time, went on for nearly 10 minutes. With many of us finding it hilarious & the incident went viral on Twitter. They couldn't even get the "sorry, we are currently experiencing technical problems" card to display on screen! Yet Huw stayed cooler than a cucumber throughout, unlike the mad running around, behind he scenes that we couldn't see, but knew full well was going on. This even becoming a main news story on the later edition on the BBC, and the other British broadcaster with a news department. To help anyone confused by time differences in the UK, almost everyone to the west of us (to the left) is BEHIND us. Everyone AHEAD is to the east of us (to the right). So basically, the further east or west you go, the bigger the time difference. And the UK doesn't have any time zone differences. We're too small for that. The journalist/presenter who fell in the pool, was at the time, one of the BBC's leading sports correspondents. He was covering the Olympics, speaking to British athletes who had won gold the previous day (I think they were rowers), when the games were hosted by Sydney. This happened in the morning here, on the BBC Breakfast program, that airs from 6am - 9.30am, broadcast simultaneously on BBC News24 & the mainstream BBC One. It was late evening in Oz. Australia is roughly between 12 hours ahead of the UK (based on averages, not the individual time zones that exist in Oz).

[@floradiamonds]

I think Adam Peaty is a swimmer but didn't recognise the rest of them, not being very clued-up about sports people. There probably were rowers there too. Perth is eight hours ahead of us, and Sydney is on the other side of the country, so probably, as you say, nearer 12 hours ahead. I only know about Perth because my granddaughter lives just outside the city, otherwise I'm clueless.

[@daintydinah7648]

Hi UK here the BBC use appropriate background shots when working from studio but it's clear that the correspondent is in the country 😅

[@carolineskipper6976]

The guy talking about the Ukraine - he was genuinely in the Ukraine, and there was no attempt to hide the fact that he was in a TV studio in Kyiv, rather than on the street. To be fair, most of the BBC news output goes without a hitch. These segments were collected over a long period of time, and multiple different news shows. All the clips were from BBC news shows. Apart from the guy reporting from Ukraine, and the Gold Coast segment (I think they were a group of young British sportsmen and women who had been competing in Autralia) and the guy whose kids got in on his zoom call, who was in South Korea, everyone was in a British studio.

Hi Steve, the Gold Coast bit was a story from.the Commonwealth games, thats basically an Olympic games for the Commonwealth countries with that edition in Australia.

[@Codex7777]

The BBC is usually extremely professional. Bear in mind that these are over many years. Most of these are also to do with them switching to the new studio, with automated robotic cameras. They definitely had teething problems for a couple of weeks. :) The coverage you were confused about was of the anchors in the studio in the UK, hosting the fairly informal breakfast news magazine programme. They were linked to a BBC reporter in Australia, who was trying to interview British swimmers who were taking part in the Commonwealth Games. The Commonwealth Games is the largest international multi sporting event after the Olympics, with most of the former countries of the British Empire, now part of the Commonwealth, taking part. :) The BBC has a proper worldwide jornalistic network. They have foreign correspondants, teams and offices all over the World, unlike most news organisations who just pretend they have. So that guyprobably was in Ukraine. They also brodcast news worldwide, with their major studio hubs being in the UK, the US and in Singapore but they have operations set up everywhere. They're actually one of the most highly respected news organisations in the World. Their main news broadcasts have undoubtedly dumbed down over the last couple of decades but their current affairs and investigate journalism output is still first class, as is their overseas coverage. The fact that the right see them as left-wing and the left see them as right-wing, tells you that they're doing something right. Btw, I should emphasise that I'm talking about BBC News and current affairs here. That's just a small part of the BBC itself, which is a huge, international multi-media organisation, mainly producing for tv, radio and online. In tv, it's actually the World's biggest producer. It produces every type of tv programme, from news, current affairs, documentaries, through to arts, music, culture and sport. Many of the British tv you know of are BBC shows, such as Monty Python, Doctor Who, Sherlock, Blackadder, The Office etc. A lot of big shows around the World are also BBC franchises. Strictly Come Dancing, for instance, known in the States as Dancing With the Stars. You can also blame us for the X-Factor and "...('country X's') got Talent franchises but I digress, as they're not BBC franchises. They also have a remit to educate so produce a lot of content for schools and universities, especially the Open University, much of which is broadcast on mainstream tv and online. Similarly they sponsor and broadcast music, culture and the arts, from the grassroots, up to major festivals. Many academic disciplines and artistic genres have their own BBC departments. One of the best things about BBC broadcasts in the UK, across all of their many tv and radio channels, as well as online, is that they don't carry advertising, so no commercial breaks for instance. It's funding comes from 2 main sources. Firstly, self-generated revenue, via sales of programmes, content and other services, especially overseas. Secondly, from the licence fee. You need a licence to own/watch tv and own/listen to radio in the UK, streaming services excluded, except for BBC iplayer. Most of this fee goes to the BBC. Some resent this but in my view, what we as individuals and the country as a whole, gets in return, makes £12 a month seem like an absolute bargain. The quality of tv and radio output in the UK would plummet without it and British cultural life generally would be diminished. :)

[@elemar5]

They have dragged it down themselves.

[@jessicat3649]

All good points, though a TV licence fee is not required for radio.

Just as background, some of these 'bloopers' took place live just after the BBC introduced new 'robotic' cameras into its newsroom. Several of these devices are mounted on a track that curves around the newsdesk and, when 'behaving themselves', they can be programmed or remotely directed to show various parts of the studio as broadcasts proceed. There was, as can be seen here, an initial period of adjustment when some cameras seemed to have minds of their own!

[@brian9731]

The BBC has news bulletins at 1pm, 6pm and 10pm from New Broadcasting House in London and BBC Breakfast which comes from their studios in Salford near Manchester. These tend to be more ordered and measured. Most of these bloopers come from the BBC's rolling News Channel which is is much faster paced, reactive and prone to errors. The exception is Louise Minchin's phone going off on air on BBC Breakfast. She's very lovely and friendly but extremely professional and was clearly mortified about her phone being heard on set.

You should check out Dennis Norden's "It'll be alright on the night ", it was a yearly show dedicated to collecting bloopers from all over the place, and presented as a show. If you like that type of stuff, it's almost guaranteed you'd like his show. He presented it from 1977-2006. He died in 2018, at the ripe old age of 96. The shows were usually around an hour long, so I dunno if that will suit your format, they're probably too long. But I thought i'd leave the suggestion for you to check out.

[@heasydragon]

Just to finish off the bit at 4:41 - officially the bridge is called The Clyde Arc, but us Glaswegians know it better as The Squinty Bridge (because it crosses the river at an angle), and it's just up-stream from the Armadillo (or officially The Clyde Auditorium). We like giving places weird names... And that massive (and it is truly gigantic) crane in the foreground is the Finnieston or Stobcross Crane. It's pretty unique in that there's only eleven other cranes like it worldwide with four of them (including Finnieston) being located on the Clyde!

Some outside broadcasters use vans or trucks which have a green screen so they can use an appropriate background for the piece they’re doing. sometimes they use them when they’re interviewing someone in the studio. They take the ‘studio’ to them so they don’t have to travel. But yes the journalists are in the country they’re reporting on.

[@eileencritchley4630]

[@mseven1361]

With BBC News it is a 24 hour rolling news channel. The main studios are in London and BBC Breakfast (where they are sitting on a long sofa with a low table) is from MediaCity in Salford, Manchester. The reason the cameras go wrong is because they are on tracks and their motions are pre planed and the director taps a button on a tablet to set the cameras to the next scene such as showing the weather presenter or the news desk. They do this because the news programme has a low budget and so rather than paying camera operators and a full team in the gallery switching cameras they have it planned out before and run through the sequence. The problem with this is if the director at the last minute decides to start at the desk and doesn't change the sequence for the cameras it will show the side screen as pre programmed. With the man when the background went he would have been at the location. They usually choose a location view of a well known place in that country to but in the background because they are probably in a basement of a news channel partner in another country.

[@stevelknievel4183]

You're right in thinking that Gold Coast is in Australia. What you didn't know though was that it was also where the 2018 Commonwealth Games were held and that the people being interviewed were all part of the England swimming squad.

It is a news programme so they talk from Britain to people around the world! the pool was talking to British Olympians!

[@dasy2k1]

The one who fell in the pool was a UK BBC sports journalist interviewing the UK gold medal winning swimming team at an event in the gold cost in Australia

You need to watch Good Morning Britain bloopers with holly & phill. 😂

5:30, remember in driving lessons, you shouldn't go closer than the eye sight of the back wheels in vision. Now the middle car will also be in fault.

The automation of the BBC studio cameras has produced hilarious malfunctions!

[@bevakathedementedraccoon]

i'd recommend checking out "funniest innuendos from this morning" This morning is a show here on every weekday morning. that particular compilation is one of my go-to's if i need a good belly laugh

We usually receive news from all around the world including Australia. This was very good, I've never seen these before.

[@johnp8131]

BBC and all British. They surprisingly do report things from overseas!!! To be fair, when you consider the output from the BBC over the years this isn't that bad. However, many of these are late night and early morning news programmes and often, the cameras are now automated?

[@dogwithwigwamz.7320]

Normally BBC Journalists do report from where X is, when X is a news - story.

[@paulmurgatroyd6372]

I guess they thought that "going live" was the best way to scare the new automated camera system into working. 😆

[@Tass...]

It's thousands of hours of live TV they do per year so things are gonna go wrong.

The BBC had the world service which is studios and reporters in various locations. The guy in Ukraine was probably actually in the Ukraine but in the studio they use there. Terry Lloyd was a reported in the middle East and was killed while covering Iraq for ITN (1 of the big 4 TV channels we have here BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5) conflict in 2003. They try to keep the reporter's in safer locations when they in conflict zones

[@Goodchappy]

The BBC is normally pretty good but I have noticed more things go wrong these days than they did 30 years ago. Also this is a collection over time.

I like bloopers I am not a fan of comedy but like the natural bloopers it's much better.
