UPDATE: |BBC Breakfast’s Naga Munchetty forced to step in as technical issue interrupts live show News

Naga Munchetty and Charlie Stayt were back on the famous red sofa to share the latest headlines from across the globe with BBC Breakfast viewers

BBC Breakfast was interrupted by a technical issue during the latest live broadcast.

Naga Munchetty and Charlie Stayt woke up the nation with the latest news from across the globe on Saturday (April 19) morning.

They crossed over to BBC reporter Oli Constable on location in Preston as he spoke to TikTok sensations The SpudBros, who are singing and dancing on the Flag Market as part of a campaign to raise awareness to testicular cancer.

As part of testicular cancer awareness month, brothers Harley and Jacob Nelson released social media song Check Your Spuds encouraging men to check for testicular cancer.

However, as Oli spoke to the Jacob, a technical issue interrupted the chat and Naga had to step in to explain the situation to viewers watching at home.

The presenter explained: “Okay Ollie, we’re having some problems there with the technical gremlins in the room but we’ll get back to Ollie Constable and Spud Bros, of course, to find out what they’re doing.

“As you were hearing there from Jacob the intention is to get men to be more aware of testicular cancer and to check themselves so in a way check your spuds kind of explains it all but we’ll get to Ollie and Spud Bros later.

Charlie joked: “Meanwhile, they’ll be checking the cables.

Naga agreed: “Yes, that’s what they should have checked as well.”

Jacob and Harley Nelson have seen their popularity sky rocket in the past 12 months with their social media antics.

Their charity video is the latest stunt and expansion from launching a store in London, to a pop-up at MediaCity in Manchester, doing a spudathon for Children in Need and collaborating on a charity single for Samaritans.

Earlier this month, they gave away £1,000 to one lucky customer who bought one of their spuds from their SpudBros van.

Naga and Charlie host BBC Breakfast Thursday to Saturday and Jon Kay and Sally Nugent host the morning show Monday to Wednesday.

A rolling line-up of different presenters step in to front the Sunday programme.
