BBC weather reporter Kawser Quamer on her viral slip-up
BBC weather reporter Kawser Quamer brought smiles to many people's faces when she inadvertently revealed her niece's surprise birthday party on air on Friday.
A viral clip of her and BBC North West Tonight host Annabel Tiffin collapsing into a fit of giggles was watched by millions - including on American talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live! - yet the party still went on to be a "huge success".
Kawser said she did not anticipate the scale of reaction, adding: "There's always one person in the family or friend circle who will let things slip when they shouldn't... unfortunately for my friends and my family, that person was me."
