This BBC presenter accidentally groped a woman live on air

Laura Holland

This is very awkward.

A BBC presenter is under fire for accidentally grabbing a women’s breast during a live broadcast. The awkward encounter occurred when the woman walked into shot when he was doing an interview.

She stopped and was about to begin speaking while the cameras were live, and in a bid to make her stop, the presenter tried to push her out of the way. Instead of just pushing her by the arm, he managed to grope her left breast.

The result was that she ended up whacking him across the shoulder. It is very awkward.

Even though it looks pretty dodgy, he presumably didn’t really cop where his hand was placed and all he could think about, at that moment in time, was to get her out of the shot.

He even took to Twitter to try and clarify saying, “Unfortunate interruption of broadcast in Bradford – just tried to minimise disruption but v tricky live on air – completely unintentional.”
