The blunder occurred at 2am on the channel. At first, Donkin looked unprepared for the news broadcast that started before he received the final cue. He hurriedly jogged outside the camera frame only to come back in the spotlight and show his utter confused state. Donkin had no clue at which camera he should be look towards.
Finally, the newscaster figured things out and started the news broadcast while looking at the camera to his right. People found it funny how Donkin had a fast recovery from the state of confusion to being a stern presenter.

Some called it the most hilarious Hurricane Irma reporting while others lauded Donkin’s recovery. Social media users shared the clip and recalled another such blunder when an interviewee was presumed as a technology expert and seated at the BBC studio.
And then how can anyone forget the interview of Robert Kelly on BBC News when his wife and kids stormed into the room and made the serious situation rather funny.
Video of Majid Asfour without pants had gone viral on social media as well in which he was being interviewed by TV channel Al Jazeera through Skype. His son filmed how he looked behind the camera and shared it with his friends, before letting the whole world know.
