A BBC NEWS presenter left fans open-mouthed with a 'fake' sign-off as she ended a bulletin.<\/p>\n
Viewers tuned in to Point West on Sunday afternoon for their latest news update.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Presenter Pam Caulfield fronted the bulletin, but left telly-watchers scratching their heads.<\/p>\n
As she closed the programme, she turned to her laptop in the studio.<\/p>\n
Beeb fans then spotted that Pam was clearly pretending to type until the show went off-air.<\/p>\n
She had told viewers: "But that's it from me. I hope you have a lovely afternoon, whatever you're up to. Goodbye."<\/p>\n
Reacting on social media, one fan said: "10\/10 for the fake typing!"<\/p>\n A second wrote: "Typing out tonight\u2019s headlines a load of gibberish."<\/p>\n "Wonder what she\u2019s writing, there," said a third.<\/p>\n While a fourth commented: "Out of office for sure."<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n BBC News' official Bristol account even shared the funny clip and poked fun at Pam's subtle attempts.<\/p>\n It comes as viewers blasted the broadcaster for making a mortifying blunder with a map graphic during Newsnight.<\/p>\n Presenter Kirsty Wark had welcomed journalist Mark Urban and former British Ambassador to the U.S. Sir Kim Darroch to discuss\u00a0Hamas and the escalating war in Israel.<\/p>\n To illustrate his discussion of how Iran could fit into the possible conflict, Mark asked for a map to be made visible on the screen.\u00a0<\/p>\n One quickly came up behind Sir Kim, showing Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Iran and\u00a0Iraq.\u00a0<\/p>\n However, there was a huge mistake on the screen that Mark thankfully caught.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cIraq and Iran – I think the labels have been put the wrong way round there,\u201d he explained.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/picture>I'VE GOT A TEXT! <\/span><\/p>\n
