Computer writer Guy Kewney went to the BBC Television Centre, to be interviewed on the BBC's News 24 TV channel, as he recounted on his blog, and sat in reception while someone else appeared in his place -- a cabbie who'd actually come to collect "Guy Kewney", apparently.
"I'm dreadfully sorry!" said the studio manager, wringing his hands as if he wanted to suddenly take the day off, retrospectively. "It seems I rang Reception, not the Stage Door, and asked if you were there. And they said yes!"
Yes, it's been in all the papers, but the Mail has posted a transcript and the video at http://img.dailymail.co.uk/video/cabbie.wmv, which is much more fun.
The clip was also run on the BBC Newswatch program, which you can see on YouTube.
