Rehearsals these days are carefully arranged so that anyone happening upon the footage (which is pretty hard to find) is immediately aware of its rehearsal status.


There was, of course, the accidental broadcast of a snippet of a rehearsal for a different emergency on BBC Two in 2010

That's clearly a fake/mock however... An obit or rehearsal has never gone out "by accident" in the UK (there was one incident in Australia in the past)

If that was the one I linked to a while back, that wasn't a rehearsal that went out, it was a real one based on false information

Someone posted a badly doctored BBC2 breakdown that the YouTube account owner was trying to pass off as an accidental playout of obit slides.


The source video was the Lambing Live breakdown of 2011, which, in reality, was already quite shambolic enough: http://youtu.be/YBW3AoEMrYc

BBC News seem to have forgotten that Alex Salmond was replaced by Nicola Sturgeon as First Minister of Scotland in November 2014 . . . Embarassed

Does anyone know where Lyse Doucet is based on a day-to-day basis?

She seems to send most of her reports from The Middle East, but was sent to the recent Paris shootings. Also, is she likely to have a producer and camera man stationed with her, or will they be locals that are freelancers?

She is based out of London, but goes to wherever stories arise.
