Watch as a BBC newsreader does a bizarre impression of a peacock live on air on Monday (7 July).
Maryam Moshiri was presenting a segment on a loose peacock terrorising a small town in Wiltshire when she shocked viewers by imitating the sounds of the colourful bird.
“I’ve been told by my producer not to do an impression of a peacock so I'm going to do it anyway,” she said.
Ms Moshiri went viral two years ago when she accidentally displayed her middle finger at the camera during a news bulletin in 2023, later apologising for the incident by saying she was “joking around with the team in the gallery”.
