BBC boobs by broadcasting woman performing steamy striptease in the background of live News at Ten
THE BBC boobed by broadcasting a woman exposing her breasts during a live 10 o’clock News broadcast.
The steamy striptease could be clearly seen by the show’s 3.8million viewers on an office computer screen behind oblivious presenter Sophie Raworth.
The footage was being watched by a BBC colleague wearing headphones and slumped in a chair.
He did not appear to realise the strip show was being beamed to the nation during Monday’s bulletin.
As Ms Raworth, 49, who earns up to £199,999-a-year, introduced news of England’s cricket series win over South Africa, viewers could see the romp over her right shoulder.
A woman wearing a black jumper can be seen standing over a bare-chested man in what appears to be a scene from an action movie.
She seductively wriggles out of shorts to reveal tight pink pants before whipping off her top and unclasping her black bra which falls, leaving her breasts in full view.
Last night a TV source said: “This has gone down like a lead balloon at the BBC. It is totally unprofessional.
"It beggars belief a sex scene should be played live on air.
“The employee is on borrowed time when bosses catch up with him. You can’t get away with this sort of stuff anymore.”
Andrew Allison, of The Freedom Association, which wants to axe the BBC license fee, said: “I’m surprised the BBC hasn’t got internet filters to stop staff doing this sort of thing. I bet they get them now.”
Bemused viewers took to social media. Zane Jawad tweeted: “@BBCNews why is there a porn video playing behind one of your news anchors during a report?”
Another user wrote: “Did I just see boobs on News at Ten?”

The gaffe came hours after the BBC accidentally aired footage of a woman flashing her breast.
The crew failed to spot her pulling her crop top to one side in the background during a live report at Sidmouth Folk Festival in Devon.
Viewer Dan Lloyd, 23, from Plymouth, said: “It certainly made my day — she was shapely and it was a real treat. But the film team didn’t seem to notice.”
The BBC said last night a probe had been launched, adding: “We are establishing the facts.”
