This is the amusing moment a shopper realised she was being filmed in the background of a live news bulletin and made a botched attempt to hide her face. The footage went viral on Twitter and prompted one user to joke: 'When you’ve phoned your work to tell them that you’ve to self-isolate and you’ve been caught red handed on the news.' Britons have been told not to call 111 except if they are seriously ill. It was revealed yesterday that the over 70s could be forced to self-isolate and that people who refuse to go into quarantine risk being thrown into jail or being slapped with a fine of up to £1,000. Anybody who tries to make an escape can be taken into custody before being returned to detention or isolation, the regulations state.
