In 2016, BBC presenters apologised after the broadcaster’s breakfast programme showed footage of a gorilla instead of Scotland’s former first minister Nicola Sturgeon.

In 2006, Guy Goma went to the BBC for a job interview for an IT position, but ended up being questioned about his views live on air when he was mistaken for the IT expert Guy Kewney. The gaffe is also relatively minor compared with other live mistakes made at the news channel over the years. With the videos brightening millions of moments in the decade since, it has contributed to the enduring popularity of the weatherman. In 2010, Schafernaker jokingly flipped the bird at the news presenter Simon McCoy, but realising he was on camera panicked and – utterly unsuccessfully – made a wild attempt to pretend to scratch his chin. Moshiri can perhaps take comfort that her immediate reaction to being caught making a swearing gesture on live camera was not as dramatic as that of the BBC weatherman Tomasz Schafernaker. But she was also inundated with support from dozens of people who had found the moment amusing, with one writing: “As a BBC licence payer I demand more of this type of behaviour.” Some people took offence, commenting below Moshiri’s tweet that it was unprofessional and using it to call for the defunding of the BBC. It was a silly joke that was meant for a small number of my mates,” she said, adding a “face palm” emoji. I wasn’t ‘flipping the bird’ at viewers or even a person really. “It was a private joke with the team and I’m so sorry it went out on air! It was not my intention for this to happen and I’m sorry if I offended or upset anyone. “When we got to 1 I turned finger around as a joke and did not realise that this would be caught on camera,” she wrote. She apologised on X on Thursday morning, saying that she had been joking around with the team, pretending to count down using her fingers.

To set the time and alarm, simply touch the fine laser engraved buttons. However, this simplified display function has made it super-easy to set up.
