German chancellor Angela Merkel was shown on the 18.00 hours Nos television news on Sunday with a 'Hitler' moustache - thanks to the set design.

The moustache was caused by part of the news programme's updated set decorations which crossed Merkel's face with a black line.

'It was an unfortunate coincidence,' editor in chief Marcel Gelauff said using the microblogging service Twitter after the show.
