rkolsen 1679 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 The other day I mentioned that a group of four teens were able to walk into Studio E at BBC's New Broadcasting House. Anyway the group of teens posted a video of what they called as a prank of them wandering around the BBC headquarters. Apparently they got in by saying the had a radio appearance and went through security. It's pretty disturbing to think they could walk through the HQ unimpeded. They posted the following videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SSfJDyguKI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MCyF1QO6bU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lE0CnJyJLig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin2kx 229 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Seriously, they're diluting the term 'prank' where AND when EVERYTHING is a JOKE. It's NOT. Even in pranks, there are BOUNDARIES. Lawd, knock some sense into these attention seeking 'kids'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Action Newsroom 1151 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I feel sorry for the BBC (not very sorry though); this has to be their biggest embarrassment in a long time. But they need to ramp up security from now on, as to prevent further foolishness from other idiots desperate to go viral on social media. And yet I bet those morons doing this stunt must've thought this was the most awesome thing ever in the end (they made the news, for Christ's sake!).

Can't remember if there's been any break in on air since a group of lesbians broke in 1988. Fortunately for the BBC these geniuses didn't look at the program schedule while they were wandering around the building. If they were five minutes early they'd have been in before the end of the broadcast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(sorry for confusion) But yeah, the Beeb is lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just thinking an on air embarrassment given the thread. That being said their BIGGEST embarrassment has to have been the Jimmy Saville child sex abuse scandal.

Here is some more from the daily mail about the stunning minute details. One hell of a read. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4327210/Operation-London-Bridge-Plans-Queen-s-death.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
