The comical scenes comes after John Nicolson, MP for Ochil and South Perthshire, saw his cat make a hilarious appearance and block the camera with his tail during a Zoom interview with the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee this month.

The committee had been hearing from Dame Carolyn McCall, chief executive of ITV, about the future of public service broadcasting in the wake of the coronavirus health crisis when an orange tail appeared on screen. 

In 2017, Robert Kelly, an associate professor of Political Science at Pusan National University in Busan, was speaking on BBC news when his toddler burst into the room. 

Seconds later a baby was seen making his way into the room in a walker as Mr Kelly tried to continue with his interview.

Mr Kelly’s wife Jung-a Kim was then filmed skidding through the threshold and pulling the two children away from the room.
