BBC Weatherman caught giving middle finger on live TV

    The BBC has been forced to apologise to viewers after one its weathermen was caught giving the finger live on air.

    Tomasz Schafermaker made the gesture at presenters Simon McCoy and Fiona Armstrong after they said his forecast would be "100% accurate and provide all the detail you could possibly want". The flustered weather presenter then realised he had been caught on camera and tried to cover up what he was doing by scratching his chin.

    The white screen problem is caused because you only have to paste what ever is after the v= in the link between the youtube brackets.

    Here:

    That's almost as good as the time a male news anchor somewhere in Canada asked the female anchor if she had booked the motel room for after work.

    The following day he was on sick leave and she was at a job interview on the other side of the country. :D

    tbh, would have rather he just gave the finger rather than sucking it as well.

    :D

    indeed, must have been hard to do a forecast after that.

    He seems to be bullet proof. A while ago he called the north of Scotland "nowhereville". It would a brave Ireish weather forecaster that would do the same!

    The funniest thing about this is that the BBC felt the need to 'apologize' for this harmless gaff.


    WHY? :confused::confused::confused:
