BBC weatherman Tomasz Schafernaker in trouble again over on-air gesture [VIDEO]

The BBC and the Met Office have been forced to apologise after weatherman Tomasz Schafernaker was caught live on air making an obscene gesture at a newsreader.

Mr Schafernaker was about to do the weather forecast on the BBC News Channel yesterday morning just before 11am, when news presenter Simon McCoy made a lighthearted remark.

“Now we will have the weather forecast in a minute and or course it will be 100 per cent accurate and provide all the detail you can possibly want,” said McCoy. “I’ve just seen Tom Schafernaker preparing for it.”

The camera cut to Schafernaker who, not realising he was now being broadcast live, was clearly seen raising his middle finger to McCoy in a well-understood gesture.

Instantly realising his mistake, Schafernaker moved his hand to his face to disguise it.

The camera cut straight back to McCoy, who also realised Schafernaker’s blunder and said: “There’s always one mistake. That was it.”
