Viewers have spotted a huge Royal reporting blunder as BBC subtitles state the word “vagina” instead of “Regina” when talking about King Charles III and his late mother Queen Elizabeth II.
At around 1:40pm as the King disembarked his jet from Balmoral at RAF Northolt before being driven to Buckingham Palace for his first walkabout as Monarch, fans spied something not quite right with the BBC’s subtitles.
King Charles and Camilla, who is the Queen Consort, were sitting in a car before setting off for Central London when newsreaders spoke about the late Queen Elizabeth.

While the newsreaders and experts spoke about Her Majesty the Queen, the subtitles that were being transcribed weren’t exactly accurate.

Touching upon Camilla who is now Queen Consort, the newsreaders explained how she wasn’t Queen Regina – but the subtitles mistook “Regina” for “vagina”.
Taking to Twitter to point out the epic Royal blunder, one viewer penned: “BBC subtitles spectacularly mishearing the words “Queen Regina” during a conversation about Camilla just now. #KingCharles.”
While another said: “Oops… BBC should really be more careful with their auto subtitles..”

And a third person shared a screengrab of the moment as it took place, with them penning alongside it: “Thank you BBC for drawing that distinction.”
This isn’t the first blunder that the BBC has suffered since covering Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s passing on Thursday, September 8.
Yesterday, one hour after the news broke, viewers spotted how the channel experienced an awkward moment when a camera fell on the floor and exposed the cameraman’s shopping bags.

One person slammed the “shambolic” broadcast an announcement when they penned: “The BBC has been practising this moment for the past 70 years and yet they messed it up.
“A shaky camera pushing through the crowds with iPhones turned towards the roof of Buckingham Palace. And then we see a flag at half mast with no announcement. It was shambolic. @BBCNews.”
