 The family of a BBC World News guest expert who was interrupted live on air by his kids have said it was “hilarious”.

Professor Robert Kelly was being interviewed live about the impeachment of South Korean president Park Geun-hye, when his children burst in behind him before quickly being followed by his wife, Jung-a Kim desperately trying to get the children out, but in her hurry, accidentally knocks books off the nearby table before banging into the door which had slammed behind her.

Their dad tried to remain professional but closed his eyes for a few seconds and apologised as they made their dramatic exit.

Prof Kelly's mother Ellen Kelly said she thought the young children, Marion, 4, and James, who is nine-months, probably thought their dad was Skyping their grandparents from their home in South Korea.

Speaking from her home in Cleveland, Ohio, Ms Kelly told The Daily Mail:

"Robert usually Skypes with us from his home office, which is where he did the interview.The kids probably heard voices coming from the computer and assumed it was us"It was just hilarious."

The 72-year-old said that she hoped her son's expertise in South Korean politics would be recognised through the interview.She said she was proud of her son but added:

"Life happens. The lesson is to lock the door."

His mum said that her son was "just embarrassed" - but might not be fully aware of his Internet fame.
