00:00 In an unexpected twist during a live broadcast, BBC presenter Maryam Moshiri found herself
00:09 at the centre of controversy as she was caught showing middle finger on live television.
00:16 The video capturing this indecent moment features the channel's chief presenter for the Daily
00:22 Global programme and had since been circulating across the internet.
00:27 The incident unfolded in real time just before Maryam transitioned to deliver the morning
00:32 news.
00:33 The spotlight is now on BBC presenter Maryam and the unfolding reactions to this surprising
00:39 turn of events.
00:41 News bloopers are no strangers to the world of media with several prominent figures finding
00:46 themselves in moments that range from humorous to downright criticised by public.
00:52 However, in Moshiri's case, as an experienced professional, she quickly regained composure,
00:58 seamlessly transitioning into her role as she began delivering the latest news.
01:03 The screen synchronised with her swift recovery but still the middle finger gesture couldn't
01:09 be hidden.

01:43 join Sky News, Moshiri was promoted.
