Charlotte Green gets the giggles on BBC Radio 4
BBC newsreader Charlotte Green dissolved in a fit of giggles while reading an obituary
You may have seen this… but I just cannot resist giving you the link from The Guardian. A good friend of mine emailed me the link but a moment ago.
apparently someone mentioned a bee in a bottle and she cracked up. if i’d done that on stage my director would have kicked my arse. bloody amateur. ‘course we had it tough in rep…
I’m afraid I have corpsed in my time. I remember attending a board meeting many years ago. The Chairman of this particular organisation was interviewing a former Brigadier in the Army Pay Corps for a position as Finance Director.
The Chairman suddenly lent to one side and let rip – a rather noisy fart – and continued the interview as if nothing had happened. A partner from a well known accountancy firm looked a bit baffled. The Chairman’s wife, another director, looked distinctly embarrassed.
I’m afraid I passed out with laughter – and when I started to ask the Brigadier a few questions – I could not stop laughing. I took the Brigadier for a drink later – nice guy. Told me he thought the Chairman was a very strange man. I’m afraid I had to agree.
