The BBC’s live coverage of an FA Cup tie between Wolves and Liverpool was plagued by an apparent pornography prank on Tuesday evening in the UK.
In a bizarre incident, Gary Lineker was anchoring live build-up to the replay match at the Molineux Stadium when he was interrupted by what sounded like sex noises coming from the studio.
The former England player looked perplexed by the noise in the studio, joking to fellow presenter Alan Shearer: “I don’t know who’s making that noise … It’s toasty in this studio, it’s a bit noisy as well. I don’t know if somebody is sending something on someone’s phone, if it’s a joke. I don’t know whether you heard it at home.”
Surely no-one’s that excited about an FA Cup Third Round Replay?
