Refresh my memory if you can.

What was the recent major screw-up at the BBC? It was reported several weeks ago that they committed a major gaffe or error on a story or something. Not much was said abouot it, of course, but it was fairly major in breadth.

It was apparently very amusing.

They were meant to have a live interview with some bigshot. The BBC producer went down to the lobby, grabbed some guy, and put him in the studio for an interview. But it was a local taxi driver, not the person they wanted. He sort of staggered through the interview.
