The BBC has apologised after showing two clips of the wrong person while reporting the death of veteran Bollywood actor Shashi Kapoor. On Monday's News at Ten, two video clips were played as presenter Huw Edwards announced the death of the 79-year-old Bollywood star, who died the same day at 5.20 p.m. But neither of the men shown were Kapoor - one was his nephew Rishi and the other was actor Amitabh Bachchan, a BBC report accepted on Tuesday.
