The internet was gifted a priceless piece of information sixteen years ago by BBC News. It was assumed that Guy Goma, a computer specialist,

would be speaking on live television as a technological expert. He recognized they had the incorrect guy when, after being hurriedly escorted into the makeup room,

the anchor named him Guy Kewney and posed an expert question to him on live television. The most priceless response ever is Goma’s expression when the penny drops.

Goma became a well-known figure that the internet recalls after handling the terrifying circumstance with great skill.

The BBC is celebrating its 100th anniversary, and the video has begun to circulate on Twitter and Reddit.

The account of how the mix-up occurred is amusing. In reality, Goma was waiting in the main lobby of

the BBC Television Centre to be interviewed for a job as an accountant in the company’s IT department, according to Metro.

Meanwhile, in another reception area, a technical specialist by the name of Guy Kewney was also waiting,

getting ready for a live TV interview regarding Apple Computer’s legal battle with the Beatles’ record label, Apple Corps.

A producer was supposedly sent to pick up Kewney from the main reception area. When the producer asked the receptionist where Guy Kewney was, she pointed to Goma by mistake.

The producer saw a photo of Kewney five minutes before the live interview began. They went up to Goma and asked him who he was.

After being shown around the News 24 studio and given makeup advice, Goma quickly made his way to the broadcast studio, where he was seated in front of the cameras and given a microphone.

Though he thought the circumstances were a little strange, he continued to believe he was going to have a job interview.

When the host introduced him and said, ‘Guy Kewney is the editor of the technology website Newswireless,’ he was taken aback.

To you, good morning.’ Goma wants her back and is obviously horrified. He attempted to answer the questions calmly after realizing he had been asked to comment on the Apple lawsuit.

Actually, if you look around, you’ll find that a lot of individuals are downloading everything they want from the website and the Internet. Goma added his perspective, saying,

‘But I think is much better for development and…eh…to improve people what they want, and to get on the easy way,

and so faster the things they looking for.’ Even though he couldn’t hear the audio, Kewney, who was still waiting, was shocked to see Goma being questioned in his position.

Twenty minutes after the broadcast mishap, Goma apparently showed up for his job interview; nonetheless, he was not hired.

Goma shot to extreme stardom, with artists lining up films and other ventures with him after the BBC called him back to talk about the tragedy itself.

According to reports, in 2006, Alison Rosenzweig informed the BBC that she was interested. ‘He’s a fun, kind of internationally famous person that I think is an interesting source for movie material,’ Rosenzweig stated.

‘We’re developing the project, and hopefully we’ll be able to set it up on a major studio.’ Goma apparently expressed interest as well: ‘I don’t mind talking with them if they want to do a movie.

Social media users have been sharing the video and commenting on Goma’s ability to remain composed in what are undoubtedly the most challenging ‘thinking on your feet’ scenarios.

‘Props to the guy to not shy away and took it as a chance to showcase his skills,’ commented Reddit user u/Ramboryback. u/Markylardy swears at the BBC,

asking why they didn’t offer him the position. I don’t care for the BBC. ‘His coolness under pressure and improv skills most likely landed him a job for Mi6 lol,’ said another user,
