Best video of a man stuck in a glass lift you’ll see this week
It’s not so much that he’s stuck (although he is). It’s because it keeps going up and down. Poor chap.
Our Programme Editor Mike Rigby has currently been going up and down in a lift for half an hour with no sign of escape. The bulletin tonight could be sparse without his heavy LIFTing #upanddown pic.twitter.com/ZQJvMY0GSp

He’s a programme editor for ITV News. Let’s hope he got out in time for the bulletin.
In my relatively short career this is the second time mike rigby has been captured by Itn lifts in a dramatic fashion. Never get in a lift with Riggers

It went on for quite a while.
UPDATE: Yep, he's still in there. https://t.co/JIhTtrvxGR

Lift contractor has been called out. On a serious note, we are trying to set him free, I promise!

BREAKING NEWS: Mike has been freed! He does not wish to speak to the media at this time and asks that his privacy be respected. #freeMike

The good news is that, after all that, he still saw the funny side.
At least he’s still on good form. #prayformike pic.twitter.com/tGlYmOuWDS

More than we would have done.
