When news broke late this morning that Daniel Khalife had been arrested MPs Esther McVey and Philip Davies were both on air. Obviously learning from previous criticism they crossed to the News Desk for the "Breaking News". Decision was then made to bring Martin Daubney on air 10 minutes early who obviously wasn't fully prepared so after doing what would have been the prepared programme introduction, Martin threw to the News probably as per the autocue but obviously it wasn't the top of the hour. Martin then stumbled for a few seconds not sure what to do then commenting "it's all gone wrong" as he was just lost before reaching for his script. Whilst Martin has come on leaps and bounds with his presentation style, this was a real test for him in live television. I did feel sorry for him today. I do though love his pronunciation of the word "digital" 😀.
