OT BBC Mixup (I still can't stop laughing)

[open.seas at verizon.net (Chris)]

For those of you who have not seen it already. A guy going to the BBC 
for a job interview was mistaken for an expert who was to be interviewed 
on BBC news about the Apple Computer v. Apple Corp (the Beatles's record 
company)lawsuit. At the last moment he realized he was being interviewed 
on live TV, and winged it. The expression on his face when he first 
realizes what is going on is priceless.

The BBC Website with the story and video.

BBC reports on the error but still doesn't know who the guy is.

The guy makes a gag cameo appearance on a talk show.

Somebody sets up a website for him.

(He didn't get the job so a petition drive is started.)

BBC Interviews him on a later broadcast.

The shirt he wore to the interview goes up for bid for charity.

This guy has become an international celebrity quite by accident.
