UH OH: Everyone Was Shocked When She Did THIS on Live TV

This is so British and so very professional. I don’t think I would have the presence of mind to do this. Rachel Mackley was giving a weather report on the BBC when she became short of breath and was getting ready to pass out. The mother-of-one then looked at presenters Polly Evans and Rob Smith and announced: ‘I’m so sorry, I’m going to faint’. Her coworkers called for assistance as they realized what was happening. That had to be a terrifying moment for everyone involved.

From Western Journalism:

As a television personality, one is trained to behave professionally, whatever the challenge–especially when the cameras are rolling.

Recently, the weather broadcaster for BBC South East Today, Rachel Mackley, exhibited such professionalism.

While giving the forecast live on the show, she began to suffer shortness of breath. Realizing that she was going to pass out, Mackley apologized to her co-workers, saying, “I’m so sorry, I’m going to faint.”

Smith could be heard saying: ‘Quick, quick chaps, if we could sort Rachel out there.’ The director then cut away as Evans said: ‘We just need to have a check on Rachel there.’ Taking to Twitter, BBC South East confirmed that Mackley was fine following the incident. A spokesman wrote: ‘Just to let you know our weather presenter Rachel is up on her feet and will be absolutely fine’. No word on what caused the fainting, but it seems she is fully recovered now. She looked and sounded perfectly fine until she wasn’t. That came on suddenly. Glad it had a happy ending.
