At a studio of one of the leading sports TV channels in Portugal, three people were seated at a table and looking at their cue cards to remember what they would be talking about as soon as the advert break was over.
Soon someone among the shooting crew held up a sign that indicated to the people at the table that the advert break was going to be over in a few seconds.
"3, 2, 1…" the host of the show counted in a whisper as he received signals from the shooting crew.
"Now!"
"Welcome back to Sports Talks, I'm still your host, Patricio Ortega and here with me are fellow pundits and reporters, William Jose and Martin Leveida," Patricio introduced himself and his co-hosts again despite having just gone on a short break just two minutes ago.
It was a customary thing among reporters to keep introducing themselves for the benefits of any new viewers who might have joined the show later than the starting time.
