    “An error led to BBC News 24 putting the wrong person on air to answer questions over a business story.
    IT expert Guy Kewney had been due to appear but instead job interview candidate Guy Goma was put on.”

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/help/3681938.stm

    Apparently he was waiting in the reception area for a job interview when a producer mistook him for the I.T. expert and whisked him off to the studio to be interviewed.
    The look on his face at the start of the interview is priceless but overall he handled it very well.
