Stranded: Live on Sky News

I know it’s wrong to laugh at this, really I do. I know it’s cruel, bad Karma, and just downright mean. But it’s also incredibly funny.

[flashvideo filename=”http://sjhoward.co.uk/video/skynewsflood.flv” title=”Stranded (Sky News)” picture=”http://sjhoward.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2007/06/altfloodshot.PNG” ratio=”14:9″ /]

My favourite quotes from the dippy reporter, who is clearly engaging mouth before brain:

Can you reverse?

Yeah, she’s climbing on the roof for nothing.

…six feet of water that she could be stuck in…

Do you think you’d be able to see her if she was in six feet of water?

And then the multi-angle split-screen… it’s fab!

If you’re worried about the poor lady, the Sky News website says she was rescued shortly afterwards by someone in a 4×4.

The used car salesman said this car drove like it was walking on water.

Do you reckon it was the same salesman who sold this?
