GB News presenter Martin Daubney has been caught up in another on-air mishap after a breaking news blunder.
The 53-year-old newsreader, who previously went viral for struggling to present news about Daniel Khalife’s arrest last year, suffered another awkward moment when the camera couldn’t find him in the studio. The camera ended up zooming in on some equipment before finally panning over to where Martin was standing.
A flustered Martin was heard saying: “I’m over here! I’m Martin Daubney and welcome to the show. It’s 5 o’clock, we had a bit of a camera issue there.” Viewers quickly took to social media to joke about the mistake.

In September, Martin got some big news on air that a terror suspect named Daniel was caught. He made a blooper by calling him “the terror man” and even let slip a swear word on live TV! It was a total mess, and viewers weren’t happy.
“First, it’s the news headlines… no it’s not,” Martin started his TV bit before he got the scoop about the caught crook. “We’re going straight to me, this is breaking news, this is fast and happening. Because as we just said… erm… we… apprehended… the terror man.”

He stumbled over his words and whispered: “F**k, it’s all gone wrong.” But he quickly got back on track and brought on his guest. Still, fans couldn’t stop talking about the messy news update.
People on social media had a laugh, with one calling it “a parody of amateur”. “Martin Daubney here on GB News GBNews making an absolute horlicks of this important breaking news,” someone posted on X, which used to be Twitter. “It’s like a parody of amateur it’s that bad! I know live tv isn’t an easy gig but it takes some doing to be this bad!”
