Watch the moment the BBC mistakenly interviewed Guy Goma, a job candidate, live on air instead of Guy Kewney, a technology journalist. Twenty years ago, on 8 May 2006, Goma was invited to interview for a role at the BBC. When he was confused with Kewney in reception, it landed him in a live slot on the BBC News Channel. Goma did not shy away from this unique situation and answered the presenter’s questions, despite not knowing the context. He did not get the job he came in to interview for.

A perfect example of if you can fake it till you make it 😅
You can tell he’s like what’s happening but rode it out 🤣
This is hands down one of the best moments of live television. The face of realisation will never get old. Guy is a legend 😂❤
he should have gotten the job just because of the interview
He’s like why am I on tv 🤣
I am in tears 😂😂😂
Saw an interview with him, present day, n the actual person who took him 2 the set. They explained how he got caught up in it - mistaken identity. Very funny. He played along bcoz of wot a relative told him yrs b4. There is now a book.
I love this Guy 😅
"Guy Qumi is the editor of the technology website..." 😲😨😶😌

A big surprise, it was indeed!😂

Guy is an absolute legend. I’d trust him to watch my dog. I hope he had a full life. Looks like an incredible human being
