Racing pundit Luke Harvey looks like a busy man, and that was in evidence today when he was forced to dash away from a live TV interview in hilarious fashion.

Harvey was talking to the BBC live from Aintree as one of horse racing's biggest festivals after it kicked off yesterday, but was clearly in demand and needed to make a swift exit.

Having had his say, and with the conversation turning to fascinators, Harvey decided that he needed to head off in the other direction at pace, all of which was unfortunately captured on camera for posterity.

Taking to Twitter, Harvey saw the funny side of it, retweeting a number of people who were joking about the moment and poking a bit of fun at him.
