BBC News viewers were recently stunned when an out-of-control camera zoomed past a presenter live on air.

Host Victoria Valentine was forced to run across the studio to remain in the shot.

She was intending to open the broadcast from the video wall - but the camera had other ideas.

It flew straight past Victoria and headed to the main desk, where there was just an empty chair.

The BBC uses automated “robot” cameras that are not operated by a human for much of its news output.
