Father's viral BBC interview highlights distractions of remote working

Working from home leaves us open to many distractions, whether it’s the television, the next-door neighbour’s dogs’ incessant barking or, as in the case of this employee, playful children.

During a live Skype interview with BBC News, Professor Robert Kelly, from Pusan National University, was talking about South Korean politics.

But it wasn’t the interview that stole the limelight and sent it viral.

A small child wearing sunglasses strutted into the room amicably and, obviously curious about what her father was doing, went and sat next to him. Kelly continued to discuss matters, despite being notified by the presenter on the other line that a child had entered the room.
