Carol Kirkwood red-faced as she gets BBC Breakfast stars name completely wrong

Carol Kirkwood was left red-faced after she made an awkward blunder live on BBC Breakfast.

The 60-year-old weather presenter was back on our screens on Thursday (October 27) morning.

She brought the latest forecast news to viewers but things didn't go quite to plan.

As she finished her weather report, Carol said: "Ruth and Charlie" before quickly correcting herself to "Rachel and Charlie".

The flustered meteorologist could be seen covering her face with her hand before Charlie said: "It's alright, it happens."

Brushing off the error, Rachel said: "Any old name will do."

Charlie instructed: "Do it one more time correctly, we'll pretend it didn't happen."

A giggling Carol continued: "That's it from me back to lovely Rachel, who is amazing, and Charlie, who's also amazing."

Charlie joked: "No one even noticed."

Rachel added: "Not until you massively threw attention to it."

It comes after Naga Munchetty was missing from the latest episode of BBC Breakfast.

Naga and Charlie are usually on presenting duty Thursday to Sunday but she wasn't to be seen.

However, Charlie was joined by Rachel on the red sofa on Thursday (October 27) morning.

It's not the only shake-up viewers have witnessed this week.

Sally Nugent and Jon Kay normally present the morning show from inside the studio on Monday to Wednesday, but there was a major format shake-up once again.

Victoria Valentine replaced Sally on the show and presented solo in the studio on Tuesday, while Jon reported live outside 10 Downing Street.

Jon held his spot outside the London residence as the country prepares to welcome Rishi Sunak as the next Prime Minister.

Sally's absence got the viewers talking as they took to social media to point out how great a job Victoria was doing, with many exclaiming that she should sit on the red sofa more often.
