CNN sent their reporter to Edinburgh – 50 miles from COP26 in Glasgow
Who among us hasn’t got a ‘wrong venue’ story? Perhaps you turned up at the wrong branch for an interview, the wrong church for a wedding – or maybe you flew from the US to Italy to Edinburgh to cover the COP26 climate summit, only to discover it’s actually nearly 50 miles away, in Glasgow.
No? Just CNN’s news anchor, Wolf Blitzer, then.
Geography is hard. Episode 3,487,922.
Of course, it was never going to fly under Twitter’s radar, and the answers were too good not to share.
These were our favourites.

". . . but the conference is in Glasgow?"
"We have to have a castle."
"There are some lovely buildings in Glasgow. Charles Rennie Mackin. . ."
"CASTLE." https://t.co/a28NHv6McY

I’m now reporting from Edinburgh in Scotland where 20,000 world leaders and delegates have gathered for the COP26 Climate Summit. COP, by the way, stands for “Conference of the Parties.” It’s the 26th time they have gathered to discuss and take action on this critical issue. pic.twitter.com/3l61Grm7fh

To be fair to Wolf, the queue to get into the Glasgow summit does now extend all the way to Edinburgh https://t.co/KNVlxJiP3V
