Newsreader's phone rings on air

Jed Pitman presenting ITV's The West Today on Sunday 14th December 2008. In one of his final programmes for ITV West, he's forgotten to turn off his phone and it rings - not once but twice - during the 5 minute bulletin! Love how he jumps out of his skin and tries to cover up the sound with his hand and by talking louder!
He then apologizes at the end of the programme. Copyright ITV plc

If you don't want to watch the whole thing the crucial points are at 0.24 and 1.13

Great clip, but please add the tag "yt:stretch=16:9" so you can watch it in the correct aspect ratio.
