Filming a news report in the rain can be treacherous at the best of times. But when you film beside a roadside puddle then you're really playing with fire.
Mustard TV News Reporter, Lauren Hewitt was recording a piece about housing in Norwich yesterday and although she had an appropriate backdrop for the report, neither herself or her camera crew it seems paid much attention to the large puddle that was situated on the side of the road just behind her.
It didn't take long for the inevitable to happen.
Miserable Monday? Could be worse. You weren't sent to soggy Costessey & forced to stand next to a puddle like our reporter @JournoLauren1. pic.twitter.com/pWvP6pI7eX
