The BBC’s subtitlers just made an epic boob at Princess Eugenie’s wedding
It’s not easy doing the subtitles to a live TV event and sometimes what you write won’t quite match with what was said.
Except some mistakes will be more embarrassing than others, like this one during the BBC’s coverage of Princess Eugenie’s wedding to Jack Brooksbank today.
Either the subtitles machine is broken or BBC News are getting rather personal about Princess Eugenie.😮😳#RoyalWedding pic.twitter.com/oFrlK2cMuX

‘ … not sure. What a beautiful breasts. Absolutely fitting her.’
We think they probably meant to say ‘dress’.
Is this real? That’s brilliant

Yeah on BBC News 24 now – like something from W1A!

And this guy checked it so it’s definitely true.
The BBC's subtitles during a #RoyalWedding news report made QUITE the error.
As Eugiene left the car a presenter said "what a beautiful dress."
Unfortunately the subtitles said "What a beautiful breasts."

I've checked and rewound and this happened. Yes, THIS IS MY JOB.

And yes, this sort of subtitling actually happened in W1A. pic.twitter.com/GAh8Ug0AsR
