Liverpool's FA Cup upset saves penalty for News at Ten | Media Monkey It is not often – well, never before – that ITV1's News at Ten had cause to be grateful to Reading Football Club, but Reading's last-minute goal its FA Cup match against Liverpool last night saved the bulletin from utter disaster. News At Ten was hit by a power cut 20 minutes before the programme's scheduled 10pm start time. When the back-up generator also failed at the studios on Gray's Inn Road, the team realised that they had no time to get to the emergency studio at Millbank. But Reading's equaliser, and subsequent extra-time winner, handed victory to the club in its match against Liverpool and gave production staff enough time to scramble down to Millbank, including seven people in senior correspondent James Mates's car. After a lot of filling from ITV's FA Cup team, the bulletin eventually went out at about 10.50pm, with the unflappable Julie Etchingham reading without an autocue and making do with notes on her desk.ITVTV newsTelevision industryFA CupMonkeyguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds guardian.co.uk |
