A reporter has gone accidentally viral after a windy day rendered his report on Ed Sheehan nearly impossible.
Ben Bason was reporting on The Darkness and Ed Sheeran’s upcoming performance in Leeds’ Roundhay Park.
He posted his expletive - laden out-takes on Twitter, and much hilarity ensued.
The Radio Air News reporter wrote:
“This is what happens when you do a self-shot piece to camera on the WINDIEST DAY EVER (excuse the bad language).
What followed was repeated attempts to get through his report as the wind toppled his camera to the ground.
Ben was a good sport about it, and he's become the Internet's favourite reporter
