WATCH: It’s been 10 years since this guy accidentally got interviewed on the BBC

10 YEARS!

Laura Holland

We cannot believe it’s been ten years already. 

Poor old Guy Goma. He arrived at the BBC for a job interview and accidentally got put on camera to do a live interview and ten years on we’re enjoying the moment all over again.

He was called for a job interview but instead when he arrived was mistaken for technology journalist Guy Kewney and brought straight onto the set of BBC News 24.

He managed to stumble his way through the questions and continue with the interview even though he hadn’t a clue what was going on.

Guy went on to become a bit of a celebrity. He appeared on Have I Got News for You, Friday Night with Johnathan Ross and The Big Fat Quiz of the Year.

His first TV appearance also inspired an episode of The IT Crowd.
