The BBC Breakfast presenters aren’t afraid of throwing shade at each other, especially live on air – and this morning’s show (May 9) was no different.
Earlier today, Charlie Stayt appeared to make a dig at one of his BBC colleagues, which caused Naga Munchetty to point out the “awkward” atmosphere in the studio.
During the programme, the 61-year-old presenter handed over to the upcoming show, Morning Live.
They were greeted by hosts Gethin Jones and Michelle Ackerley, who gave a glimpse into the topics coming up in the programme – one being new statistics that have shown that narcissism is on the rise. And that’s where Charlie chipped in…
BBC Breakfast presenters: Charlie Stayt makes awkward dig at Gethin Jones
Charlie quipped at Gethin: “Narcissism, Gethin. Narcissism in television presenters, I wonder maybe think about that, hey?”
Gethin looked a little uncomfortable as he replied: “Well, yeah, we can have a long discussion about it at half past nine this morning, Charlie.”
Narcissism, Gethin. Narcissism in television presenters, I wonder maybe think about that, hey?
Meanwhile, Naga looked on at Charlie in disbelief, giving him a hefty dose of side-eye. She stated: “It’s a terrible thing, a terrible thing,” before bursting out in laughter.
She then exclaimed: “That wasn’t awkward at all.”
Dan Walker misses his BBC Breakfast co-stars
Despite the tension in the studio, it seems that one former BBC Breakfast presenter misses his co-stars after flying the nest for Channel 5.
Dan Walker opened up about missing his friends during an Instagram Q&A last month. During the Q&A, Dan was asked: “Do you miss BBC Breakfast and would you ever go back?”
Dan responded with a snap of him and Sally Nugent holding a glitterball trophy for his followers to see.
“I miss my friends…but no [laughing emoji],” he wrote.
