A BBC Radio Presenter had a terrifying encounter during her live show this afternoon when a mouse began running round the studio and ended up just feet away from her on a table.

5 Live's Shelagh Fogarty panicked, suddenly leapt out her chair and kept her feet off the ground when she spotted the creature scurrying around.

Shelagh Fogarty told listeners:

In December a Weather Presenter shrieked in the middle of her broadcast when a mouse appeared in her studio.

Kate Kinsella, who was reading a bulletin for BBC Three Counties radio, was clearly shocked when she saw the rodent and told listeners: "Sorry, a mouse just run past me in my studio."
