It’s been 10 years since a man was interviewed by the BBC and was probably one of the very first clips that went “viral.”
The moment was being remembered on several U.K. news websites on Tuesday.
Guy Goma went to a job interview for the BBC as a Data Support Cleanser.
Goma was mistaken for tech expert Guy Kewney and was taken on the set, and chaos and hilarity ensued. He was asked questions regarding Apple’s court cases with The Beatles’ record label.
The clip went viral, in part, due to the look of horror on Goma’s face when he realizes what’s actually going on.
He says: “I am very surprised to see...this verdict to come on me, because I was not expecting that.”
“When I came, they told me something else and I am coming. ‘You got an interview,’ that’s all. So a big surprise anyway,” he said.
The interview turned him into a celebrity of sorts, and he appeared on several TV shows.
