BBC's Newscaster Emily Maitlis Accused of Flashing Too Much Leg

Emily Maitlis flashed her leg on on the 9 o'clock BBC's newsPoor Emily Maitlis, it's totally ok for me!

The glamorous presenter decided to liven up proceedings during a televised trailer for the BBC's 10pm news.

Perched casually on the edge of her circular desk, her stilettos dangling above the studio floor, the 36-year-old blonde swung one toned leg over the other.

Although she was wearing a relatively demure navy skirt-suit, Miss Maitlis's flash of shapely calf caused a stir among more conservative viewers who saw the 9pm trailer on Monday.

By last night more than 30 complaints had been posted on the BBC's message boards by disgruntled licence fee-payers.

Miss Maitlis's style of presenting was described as "indulgent" and "completely inappropriate". One viewer complained that she was "flashing her legs" while another added: "It is thoroughly unprofessional and obviously meant to be titillating. It is giving out all the wrong messages."
