BBC recently made a mistake live on air. Reportedly, they called out "Guy Kewney", the taxi driver responded "Hello". He was then whisked up, sat down, and set for an interview live on air with the BBC, responding to questions about the Apple vs Apple lawsuit.

What a stupid mistake.I pity that bald guy.If i were the CEO of BBC,I fired the interviewer@host for not realizing what was going on.The BBC interviews the completely wrong person in this clip. News 24 ran an interview with who they thought, was IT expert Guy Kewney, on an important technological trial. Instead Guy Goma, a BBC job applicant found himself in the hot seat on live television. Check out his expression when he realizes what is happening!

El 08 de mayo de 2006, la presentadora de BBC News Karen Bowerman debía entrevistar a Guy Kewney, especialista en IT. Sin embargo, tenía a su lado a Guy Goma, taxista que había acudido a la recepción en respuesta a un aviso de trabajo, y que fue tomado del brazo por un productor que lo condujo hasta un estudio. La transcripcion de la entrevista es la siguiente: KAREN BOWERMAN: Guy Kewney es editor del sitio web de tecnología Newswireless. (CARA DE HORROR DEL ENTREVISTADO) KB: Buenos dias a usted! Entrevistado: Buenos dias! KB: ¿Te sorprendió el veredicto de hoy. Entrevistado: "Estoy muy sorprendido de que este veredicto me haya llegado a mí, porque no me lo esperaba. Cuando vine me dijeron algo más y estoy... muy sorprendido en cualquier caso". KB: Una gran sorpresa, sí, sí. Entrevistado: Exactamente! © Todos los derechos reservados British Broadcasting Corporation.

Back in the early to mid 1990s, as Marketing Manager of the UK's third largest PC reseller, I made a series of videos aimed at corporate I.T. decision makers. At the time (well before the Web) this was cutting edge stuff - and proved very popular, eventually reaching edition 32. It was mailed out on VHS cassettes - this was well before DVDs as well! Here then is a 5-minute tongue-in-cheek precis of one edition from the summer of 1994. (The Yellow captions you will see are mine of course.) Where are the people who made it and appeared on it? Drop me an email if you were there! Some of the names of those involved were: Me (Steve Bell), Darren Smithson, Steve Smith, Tunji Akintokun, Alison Bull, Tim Pickard, Michael Rodd, Colin Grimshaw and Chris Roberts. Those we interviewed and featured included, David Godwin (MD EMEA Novell), John Landry (Chief Technology Officer - Lotus Development Corporatrion), Paul Bailey (MD Lotus Dev Corp UK), Rikke Helms (MD, Borland UK), Dr Alan Soloman (the original Anti-virus King), Guy Kewney (I.T. Guru and Editor-in-Chief at Ziff Davies) and many more - it was quite a list!
