当地时间22日，英国首相鲍里斯•约翰逊在一次演讲中出现“尴尬”意外，随后他选择用小猪佩奇来“救场”，如此也导致他成为了英国媒体近日的焦点。
路透社：英首相约翰逊在演讲慌乱中说道：我们都一定要去“小猪佩奇世界”

路透社报道称，在当天的英国工业联盟（Confederation of British Industry）演讲中，约翰逊突然找不到演讲稿了。翻来翻去之后，约翰逊仍然一无所获，只得叹息“该死”。随后，他还不停的嘀咕道“抱歉抱歉”。
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was briefly left lost for words on Monday when he lost his place in notes during a speech. Searching through his notes, Johnson sighed, said "blast it" and repeatedly muttered "forgive me" as he briefly interrupted his speech to the Confederation of British Industry in Port of Tyne, northern England.

稍作镇定后，约翰逊开始谈起“科技独角兽公司”。接着话锋一转，突然把话题转移到参观过的“小猪佩奇世界”主题公园。
He recovered, talking about technology "unicorns" and then a visit to Peppa Pig World, a park based on the children's animated TV show about an exuberant pink pig and her friends and family.
“昨天，我去了，我们一定都要去小猪佩奇世界”，约翰逊对商界领袖们说道，“小猪佩奇世界是个我喜欢的地方，街道安全，学校有秩序。”
"Yesterday I went, as we all must, to Peppa Pig World," Johnson told the business executives. "I loved it. Peppa Pig World is very much my kind of place: it has very safe streets, discipline in schools."
他随后向台下听众询问谁去过位于英格兰南部汉普郡的主题公园，因为那里是全世界最大的“小猪佩奇世界”而且“很适合幼儿”。
Johnson asked the audience of business executives who had been to the theme park in Hampshire, southern England, which says it is the world's largest Peppa Pig World and "perfect for toddlers".
“我很惊讶你们没去过”，约翰逊随后说道，“谁能想得到一个长得像吹风机、甚至是毕加索风格吹风机的猪，还被BBC拒绝过，现在却可以出口到180多个国家，在美国和中国都将开设主题公园。”
"I am surprised you haven't been there," Johnson said to those executives who had not visited the park. "Who would have believed that a pig that looks like a hairdryer or possibly a Picasso-like hairdryer, a pig that was rejected by the BBC, would now be exported to 180 countries with theme parks both in America and China?"
有记者问他有关演讲的问题时，约翰逊并不在意，而是说已经表达了自己想说的东西。
Johnson was unabashed when reporters asked him about the speech and said he had made the points he had wanted.
“我觉得大家都了解了我想说的大部分内容，我觉得挺好。”
"I think that people got the vast majority of the points I wanted to make," Johnson said. "I thought it went over well."
不过显然，与约翰逊的自我感觉良好相比，不少很多人未必这样想……
