BBC News went hilariously surreal for a minute and it’s the best news we’ve had for a while
There was a rather fabulously surreal moment on BBC News today when a video didn’t quite play out as planned.
It’s presenter Lukwesa Burak and, well, best have a watch for yourself.
So this just happened on BBC News 😁 pic.twitter.com/T8ca7VY4Co

And it didn’t end there, it turned out.
Quite the surreal minute on the BBC News Channel just now. pic.twitter.com/LOmjnb5jbc

Beautifully handled, we must say, although the minute must have felt like an hour. At least.
The moment’s gone wildly viral on Twitter and here are just a few of the things people said about it.
Good for her😀😀

If I don’t look at the camera, they can’t see me

Once left a teams call that I'd joined in the car and though the call ended on the car stereo, I was somehow still in the meeting. Put some music on and sang along and rejoined the call later in the day. Was told they 'enjoyed the disco' earlier 😳

This person clearly knows what they are talking about.
We’ve all NEARLY done that… https://t.co/mhrP010w4o

To conclude …
That’s a heroic recovery, to be honest. The world audience has gone to an ad break and the video for the UK audience doesn’t play, so you have to wing it until the world comes back, leaving a little gap so they don’t catch you mid-sentence. https://t.co/Mg97CwHGfs

And this.
This is one of the best things I've ever seen. I do need to give her a hug, though. @BBCNews Be kind to her!
