BBC reporter tells his terrible secret (blooper)

The BBC's Jonathan Charles 'accidentally' tells us of his terrifying ordeal following a punctuation blackout.

Yes, I think you'll find it's not editing at all, certainly doesn't look like it. It's a case of reading the teleprompter without inserting any punctuation.

If he had said it like:
"I'm Jonathan Charles"
*pause*
"Kept hidden for almost two decades..."


And done the correct emphasis/inflection, then it would have sounded fine.

I've seen other cases of this happening.

its not editing in the sense that it was chopped up and reorganized. I think it was just cut short. Thats why the video ends so abruptly at the last word. It could have been something like:

"I'm Jonathan Charles. Kept hidden for almost two decades, (persons name) was yadda yadda yadda." and so on.
