Listen up kids, valuable safety lesson from the One Show... Rules when a fire alarm goes off... DO NOT run DO NOT panic But always, always DO... Stay sat down and despite the impending doom, ask the question "What do you get if you cross cows and bats?"
"Oh, I think that's our fire alarm", WELL NOOOOOOO, ITS AN AIRPLANE TAKING OFF AT HEATHROW!!! Of course its the fire alarm, or else it wouldn't go off...
I noticed something else, they said they'll correct the fault, we'll if there's a fire alarm.... I'd leave it to firemen for sure, I don't want to die pressing buttons on a fire alarm panel.
Ethan Carberry-Holt You have to remember that they are live on air, and that they have to say what’s going on, and not just leave the studio, and they must remain positive, so she did the right thing
We are trying to correct the fault we will be back as soon as we can. About 30 seconds later of silence: We have left the one show there for now but here’s a little something extra.
My friend works at the BBC Television Centre and he said that someone set it off while having a fracas with someone else and got a huge fine for interrupting British television!
@jafwilding I am an evacuations coordinator at the bbc studio and when a detector or break glass is activated no alarm sounds. The security office reception the fire marshals and the floor manager get alerts and then the area is throughly investigated for evidence of fire before any evacuation. And if four or more detectors are activated it still dose not cause evacuation but alerts fire service and reads the message "an incident has been reported in the building await further instructions".
I think it's because we in the UK are used to breakdowns coming with "but for now, here's some music." US-style breakdowns are much more likely to just have dead silence at least from what I've watched here on YT.
@dustomatic100 ... Fire sprinklers activate automatically when the heat of a fire causes the glass inside to shatter which in turn starts the pumps and water flow when the pressure drops. Simply, if a sprinkler gets knocked, or too much heat.. It WILL go off and nothing will stop it..
I remember this I was sat on my sofa in my living room eating doner kebeb (I was like about 11 when this happened) and I was just sat there just all quiet and then when the fire alarm went off on the show I was just sat there laughing 😂
I remember this happened on GMTV a few years ago, The fire alarm went off liver on air. Been trying to find a video of that but can't anywhere. Can anyone help?
@PortobelloPink No.... The Voice Over Comes From BBC Television Center But The One Show Broadcasts Live From BBC Media Village Television City. Hope That Helps
@dustomatic100 For example about 2 weeks before christmas there was a fire in the electrical cupboard on the 3rd floor. The alarm came to us and we investigated and attempted to extinguish it but it was too large. We evacuated manually the imminent area by shouting and banging before a fire alert was played to the whole 3rd floor about a minute later. Then the fire become bigger so the fire service said evacuate all non live ares. Interfering is a last option and a fire would need to be very big
She'd have been in a different building - the One Show comes from Broadcasting House, BBC One Presentation comes from Red Bee's Broadcast Centre in White City
I heard that one of the backstage staff was cooking something and set off the alarm. Strange, because Tamsin Grieg says she needs to brush up on cooking, just as the alarm goes off.
Is it wrong that I secretly wanted there to be an actual fire? As soon as it went off-air, visions of the studio being engulfed in flames, and Alex Jones being burned alive kept me happy.
I find it funny how they don't leave until a fire is confirmed, but when my school's alarm system goes off, we have to evacuate even if the activation was an accident.
What do you get if you cross cows with bats? Leave the building immediately as the voice evacuation sounder is stating!!!..............................................................................................................................................Just though it is a funny joke😉☺👍
@dustomatic100 It was not a baked potato and must have indeed been a real fire which authorised evacuation. In buildings like this its very hard to evacuate without evidence and serious evidence. For example we have about 3-4 fire alarm activations a week but 9/10 times they are never evacuated as they are either not real or small enough to contain e.g. in a store room. If the fire is big enough to evacuate it is done area by area meaning the alarm only sounds in the high risk areas first.
oooh, i think that's our fire alarm! Must be our in-house DJ, he's real creative that bloke. Or we're about to be engulfed by flames. Right, sorry for interrupting, let's talk about bats.
@Rebxzz321 it gets 4-5 million viewers a night (on AVERAGE, so taking into account people who dip in and out), so it's a couple of mill behind Emmerdale and is the 2nd most watched programme in its timeslot, 5 nights a week.
Well then control would have been handed over to another BBC studio in the town/city/area and given a brief explanation of what is going on and then the announcer would have said so.
