So the adage goes, don’t work with children or animals, but Antenna TV journalist Lazos Mantikos, in Greece, was pursued by a persistent pig during a live TV broadcast.
The BBC reported that Mr Mantikos told the studio presenters that the animal had been following him for a while, and he could not stand still because it was biting him.
Mr Mantikos was trying to give an update on flooding in the Greek town of Kineta, which had been hit by storms.
