There’s having a bad day at work, and then there’s having a day so monumentally bad it gets broadcast around the world, the latter of which Sky News presenter Sophy Ridge is currently experiencing.
Presenting her weekly Sophy Ridge on Sunday show last weekend the UK broadcaster has found herself the butt of international jokes after she made a major mispronunciation when introducing her next guest.
"We're live from the Glasgow Science Centre," Ridge begins before saying, "joining us in our studio now is the leader of Scottish labia... labour, sorry, Kezia Dugdale."
It hurts to read, it hurts to watch, but mostly, it just hurts Kezia Dugdale.

I was working at Sanity. I was in my 2nd week of working there. A customer came in requesting a CD which I hadn't heard of. I typed the name of it in our system (quietly feeling clever for remembering what I'd been taught) to see if we had it on hand. There were no copies available and no option to order it in. So I told the customer, "Sorry, we don't have any copies of Slutty Cowgirls available".
Her eyes bulged and she exclaimed, "I said Sunny Cowgirls!"
