So someone released the full video !
It wasn’t the BBC who released this and it certainly wasn’t me! But in a way I think I’m glad this is out there, as it shows I WAS having a bit of a joke with the crew during the countdown.
Again, so sorry it went out on air. It was meant…
I’m letting someone else do the countdown tonight ! 😂
I’ll be home with the family .. wishing you all a wonderful New Year. 🥳
May you all enjoy health and happiness in 2024 🫶🏼

It does show, however, that I wasn’t lying!
So happy to be back at work today - presenting the evening news on
@BBCOne

Earlier we reported on some of the pro-Palestinian demonstrations at the weekend.We spoke about “several demonstrations across Britain during which people voiced their backing for Hamas”.
We accept this was poorly phrased and was a misleading description of the demonstrations.

Hey, I’m so sorry about this.
I was having a private joke with the team in the gallery and pretending to count down as the director was counting me down from 10-0.. including the fingers to show the number.
When we got to 1 I turned finger around as a joke and did not realise…

The BBC’s new worldwide ad campaign has just dropped. ( and I’m in the same sentence as these legends!!)
“Featured throughout the campaign are some of the BBC’s renowned journalists, including Jeremy Bowen, Orla Guerin, Maryam Moshiri, Clive Myrie, and Amol Rajan.” 👏🏽…

"A job for life" could soon be a thing of the past. New research shows the average millennial spends less than 4 years with an employer and may have had 6 jobs by the age of 34. Is this a good thing? What’s your experience?

Just one less email being sent per day could reduce the UK’s carbon footprint by 16,000 tonnes a year, that’s according to new research which suggests we send too many unnecessary emails. Do you agree? Would you cut back?

A new study suggests long meetings at work are more about ‘therapy rather than solutions’, we want to know, do you think meetings are meaningless or an important part of work life?
