A BBC journalist seemed to walk off screen in a huff during election night coverage as the on-screen graphics failed to materialise.
Dundee’s own Brian Taylor was talking through the results in Scotland when the fancy graphics disappeared from view as he started to discuss East Lothian.
When nothing showed up on the screen in the studio Taylor, the BBC Scotland political editor, was seen exiting the shot.

“OK. There seems to be some problem with this,” he said as he left the set and shook his bit of paper.

It proved some light relief to people staying up overnight to watch the election results coverage. Taylor did return later and appeared to be in a better mood.
But not before people started having some fun with Taylor’s exit and merged it on the back of his beloved Dundee United’s relegation…

Main talking point so far in #sp16 is will Brian Taylor go full Incredible Hulk on his giant TV before end of night? pic.twitter.com/qiUp6smojC
