A camera fault which gave the impression a TV reporter was sinking into the studio floor has been fixed, BBC Look North has said.

A clip of Caroline Bilton's lunchtime report on Monday has been viewed more than 500,000 times on YouTube.

The reporter tweeted: "Well I'm globally famous it would seem and for all the wrong reasons! The power of the web! Glad it's making people smile. #sinkingfeeling".
