That would be much funnier.

Yep, even funnier.

That's the vibe I got too. Something seemed off, hopefully he's just embarrassed and awkward.

He seems like a very serious dude who was discussing his area of expertise on a serious issue and his wife and kids just torpedoed his BBC interview. He looks mortified to me.

The video is adorable and hilarious. When it was just the kids I was oh cute lol and then the mom came sliding in like Kramer and I lost it. Her desperate attempts to keep low even though they were still visible, the older kid getting dragged out on her stomach and sounding confused, the baby's walker getting stuck. So hilarious. .

In your world, do husbands beat their wives every time they're annoyed?

They live in her country. Maybe he's a mail-order husband.

Same! Each layer gets funnier -- the girl toddling into the room is funny enough, and then it is hilarious when the baby comes zooming in! But then the mom sliding in; I'm crying now! And then the door shutting and baby stuck. And not even realizing about the woman's pants. Dying...it is such an example of our stressed out lives and yet and an even more perfect antidote.

I didn't think this video could be any funnier, but I didn't notice the pants down!

The fact that this was completely unstaged and REAL, has struck a chord with so many people. It's such a universal situation - not necessarily the dad giving a live TV interview, but something important going on and the kids barging in. I have watched it so many times and each time, I laugh until I cry!

I know, so cute!! (Yes, walkers are sold here).

But something about the way mom reacted seems...Unreal. I hope this wasn't staged.
First, if I saw that my DH's door was unlocked, I would not have assumed he was on live TV or doing something that would have warrented that type of speed and PANIC. Second, how'd she end up on the floor looking like a slapstick comedy routine? I don't know, just rings untrue to me

If I was given the opportunity to appear on BBC worldwide, I'd probably tell my spouse. Wouldn't you? Why would you assume she didn't know?

You're right! I didn't notice that the first time I watched it. So funny.

Was that a producer we heard laughing in the background?
