BBC Breakfast's Carol Kirkwood left speechless as Naga Munchetty 'takes over' weather bulletin

BBC Breakfast's Carol Kirkwood was playfully 'shut down' by her co-star Naga Munchetty live on air after she cheekily suggested they move on to "something interesting" - after 'taking over' the weather bulletin.

On Thursday's episode of the popular morning programme, Naga and Charlie Stayt were back on our screens, waking up the nation with the latest global news headlines.

They were joined by weather presenter Carol, who was back on the show to deliver the day's forecast. Before Carol could launch into her segment, Naga introduced her by saying: "It's time to talk to Carol and look ahead."

The camera then switched to a screen showing Carol standing in front of a green screen displaying the day's weather.

Seemingly taking over Carol's forecast, Naga pointed at the screen and said: "That's pretty much the view that was out there this morning and I think that is there for a lot of us. It's quite changeable weather but I think calmer nights and less stuffy nights," reports the Express.

Carol humorously interjected: "And that is the forecast, I'll be back in 10 minutes with the headlines."

The studio erupted in laughter as Naga jokingly responded: "Bye Carol it was really good talking to you. It is 12 minutes to 9 is the time, let's move on to something more interesting."

Caught off guard by the comment, Carol pulled a surprised face at the camera and exclaimed: "A shock." Naga couldn't help but laugh as she added: "Only joking."

It comes as Carol recently opened up about her time on BBC Strictly Come Dancing as she confessed that the programme left her feeling 'shattered'.

The 63 year old hit the dance floor back in 2015 alongside professional partner Pasha Kovalev, with the duo bowing out of the competition during the seventh week.

While speaking to Gary Davies on Radio Two, the BBC star revealed that balancing dance rehearsals with her morning weather presenting role proved demanding.

She said: "When you look back on it, you think, 'I can't believe I did that'. It was joyous, it was really hard work because I was working Monday to Friday, doing Breakfast at the time.

"So I was exhausted doing it, but Pasha Kovalev, my partner, is a gent as well and a really, really nice man."
