TV reporters aren’t what they were.
Poor old Mark Simpson got in a right old tangle the other day over who was mum and who was daughter in the Shannon/Karen Matthews story. It went on for several seconds, and then mercifully the story switched to a pre-filmed clip. There was no embarrassing repeat when the camera returned to Mark – somebody cut the sound off.
And then some female reporter (didn’t catch her name) dropped a clanger in the Big Ben story.
You may recall that the famous bell celebrated its 150th anniversary on Thursday. The reporter was at the foundry where it was cast and showed us the ingredients used in the process – sand, clay, hair, and horse manure. And not a mention of metal.
If that was the case, surely I wouldn’t go ding dong. Just DUNG!
Sorry ...
