Another classic moment from Channel 4 News, from the same guys who brought you a woman reporter being goosed on live TV during the 2007 floods. This time, on the main bulletin item, a woman was outside BBC television centre explaining the story and a fat man in a cream jumper and looking not unlike the comedian Mel Smith, strolled behind the female journalist talking to camera and smiled smugly over her shoulder. He then waddled over to her other side, hands firmly in his pockets, casual as you like and beamed again in an understated way; understated since this was a very over-the-top way of getting on national TV. We then cut away to some clips of the top of the bill story, before coming back to the reporter interviewing a protestor. And look who hoves back into view, up to his old tricks. I'm surprised none of the production crew present hectored him into pissing off. Maybe they did, but, if so, it did not deter him and his self-satisfied expression, as he became the main visual point of interest during these scenes. Thank you Channel 4 News for this moment of the absurd.
