BBC Look North presenter struggled to pull himself together after cracking a risque joke about a colleague.
Peter Levy, the veteran presenter on the daily programme, was left chuckling at his own joke during the broadcast today.
The 71-year-old, who is known for peppering shows with occasional adult humour, left viewers clutching their pearls with his latest quip.
Viewers had enjoyed a newscast by Look North presenter Phillip Norton, with the last shot showing a close-up of a Dacia Sandero, prompting him to make a wordplay on the name.
Back in the studio, Levy wrapped up the newscast and said: ‘I love the car names.
‘Phillip Norton, who is always looking for an escort.’

Visibly entertained by the innuendo, which could have also referred to the iconic vehicle, Ford Escort, Levy burst into a beaming smile and giggled as he tried to continue.
He chuckled through the final seconds of the broadcast before being joined by BBC weather presenter Paul Hudson.
When discussing potholes, Levy asked viewers to get in touch about the scale of the problem where they lived.
‘How big is your hole?’ he asked before realising what he said.
He continued: ‘If you can send a picture, Norton’s always in a hole.’
In another newscast, Levy introduced a road with an unfortunate name, Glory Hole Walkway, which had been closed for over a year, prompting a laugh from the long-standing presenter.
