A BBC Sports presenter left viewers scratching their heads after he tapped on an imaginary device at the end of a broadcast.
Chris Mitchell was finishing a bulletin on the BBC’s News Channel’s Sports Today segment when he said goodbye to viewers.
The otherwise unremarkable broadcast took a strange turn when Mitchell turned to face away from the camera, and awkwardly looked as though he was tapping on an imaginary iPad in his empty hand.
Kevin Robinson wrote: ‘THIS IS EVEN BETTER THAN PACK-OF-PAPER-GATE!’ referring to the cringe-worthy moment last year when BBC presenter Simom McCoy mistakenly picked up a stack of paper to hold on air rather than his iPad.
Happy to see the funny side of his gaffe – and to remind viewers about McCoy’s mistake – Mitchell replied on Twitter: “Simon will always be King!”Viewers quickly took to Twitter to poke fun at Mitchell’s odd behaviour.
