An Irish newsreader could barely hold it together while reading a bizarre news report

Alan Loughnane

He did quite well in the end…

Irish newscaster Nick Sheridan has become somewhat internet famous over the past day or so after he had a minor incident while reporting the news on STV2 on Wednesday.

What starts as a wry smile during the report, spirals as the report continues to the point where Sheridan is very visibly struggling to hold it together.

It reminds us of the moment where you’re sitting in mass or another similarly serious event with a family member, they say something that just sets you off and try as you might, the pair of you dissolve into uncontrollable laughter.

STV2 also saw the funny side of they minor blip as they posted the footage on their social media platforms.

Sheridan formerly presented news2day on RTÉ2 and the Wexford man took to Twitter to thank people for all their kind words following the broadcast.
