(as in they seemed to have continued the item whilst off air and must have been told later on as they apologised later in the show for the disruption)
Surely the gallery would notice it had been knocked off air pretty quickly and communicated that through their earpiece?
Or if they did continue surely the footage could then be edited in to the iPlayer later rather than keeping the breakdown in that as well! (Granted it is only Sunday Morning Live so probably not a very high priority)
If they carry on, then the programme can be safely returned to as soon as a connection is re-established. It stops the risk of them coming back just as a presenter or contributor is saying something rude or defamatory.
