The 64-year-old broadcaster was hosting live news on Friday while there were updates on the police investigation relating to escaped terror suspect Daniel Khalife - who was finally arrested again in London on Saturday. The host was helming his daily show, The News Hour with Mark Austin, which airs on Sky News at 5pm on weekdays. And while he was reviewing updates about escaped terror suspect Daniel Khalife, who has been suspected of spying on behalf of Iran and was on the run for four days after escaping jail before being rearrested, Mark was joined by policing commentator Danny Shaw to discuss the investigation. But when it came to introduction Danny, Mark suffered a slip of the tongue - that caused quite an embarrassing on-air moment. As the policing commentator joined Mark in the studio via video link, Mark introduced him saying: 'Let's bring in policing commentator Danny Shaw, who joins us now. Good evening, daddy.' Immediately realising his error, Mark corrected himself, saying hurriedly: 'Uh, Danny. Thank you for being with us!' While Mark was able to correct his blunder, it was already too late as viewers noticed the moment and took to social media to laugh at his misfortune. One viewer, commenting online, laughed: 'Mark Austin just called this man 'Daddy' during the man hunt coverage on Sky News.' While another, seemingly feeling Mark's embarrassment, said: "Not Mark Austin calling someone daddy instead of Danny on Sky News." And a further amused viewer wrote: 'I could watch Mark Austin saying hello to his Daddy all day.' Another viewer took a philosophical approach to Mark's mishap, suggesting: "Bit of a Freudian slip from Mark Austin on #skynews just){kind=link}
