BBC News Workers Seen Playing with Umbrellas and Picking Their Noses Behind A Presenter During Broadcast


This is how Daily Mail is reporting it:

BBC staff haven't quite got used to how much viewers can see what's going on in the newsroom through the glass wall at the back of their new 24-hour news studio, it seems.

Complaints have been rolling in about the journalists seen in the background of news broadcasts chomping bananas, chatting, yawning, stretching, picking their noses and even flirting and playfighting in their new open-plan office at London's Broadcasting House.

Comments on social media websites have picked up on the antics of staff in the Corporation's multi-million pound 'fish bowl' newsroom since it moved from its previous home in Television Centre in March.
