Veteran Sky News anchor Niall Paterson cracks up live on air in unforgettable moment!
A Sky newsreader hit the giggles live on air today as he tried to present a feature on bird population levels across the UK.
Niall Paterson appeared to struggle describing the good news about a solid rise in t1t numbers nationwide.
Reading from the teleprompter, the experienced presenter – who has been with Sky News since 2004 – started giggling as soon as he caught sight of his forthcoming lines.
Smirking and pushing back in his chair, he says: ‘The number of small garden birds has increased this year thanks to a mild winter which made it easier for them to find food.’
With his co-hosts chortling in the background, he then goes for the line that he already knows is going to tickle him while reading.
After pausing for a giggle, he then continued: ‘Long-tailed t1ts, coal t1ts,’ but only those five words prove enough to set him off again.
