There were heightened emotions all round when the jury were returning with the Bain verdict on Friday afternoon.

One News anchor Wendy Petrie could hardly contain her excitement - marking the moment of her live cross-over with a fist pump and clenched teeth when she thought she was off air.

The clip had 13,000 hits on YouTube this morning.
