Another hard-working reporter has slipped up during the daily coronavirus briefings, this time managing to get Jacinda Ardern and Dr Ashley Bloomfield mixed up before forgetting his question, in a hilarious exchange caught on video.
Australia's Jackson Williams, reporting for Sky News, made the awkward gaffe while attempting to ask
the Director-General of Health Dr Ashley Bloomfield a question on the low number of cases that New Zealand is now recording.
Unfortunately Williams directed his question at Ardern, who smiled kindly and pointed to her left.
It's not quite as bad as calling your teacher "mum" but it was enough to see Williams forget his question.
