BBC News descends into chaos as people seen running around in background of programme

Viewers tuning in to the BBC News channel this evening (Tuesday 18 July) may have noticed some cheeky people playing in the background of the programme.

During the show, a feed from the United States being played in the background showed people running into shot.

It is currently unknown who the people are and unclear if they work for the BBC.

They were interrupting a news segment about the announcement that Jaguar Land Rover are to build a 'gigafactory' for car batteries in Somerset in the South West of the UK.

The BBC have been contacted for comment.
