TV presenter presses on as co-host faints


TV presenter presses on as co-host faints

A QVC host carried on with his sales pitch to viewers - despite his co-presenter fainting beside him live on air.
Dan Wheeler was in the middle of promoting a computer tablet with QVC technology expert Cassie Slane when she suddenly collapsed.
"Kids love tablets. They love playing with tablets, they love the games," she said before beginning to slur her words.
Appearing flustered, Ms Slane then patted herself on the chest before falling towards her co-host and onto a table.
However, the unruffled Mr Wheeler didn't miss a beat as he continued his sales pitch as the cameras switched to a shot of the product.
Ms Slane later took to Facebook to reassure viewers she was recovering, while a colleague put the incident down to 'low blood sugar levels'.
"Thanks to everyone for your kind words," she wrote. "I am feeling a lot better today!"
