Naga Munchetty bags ANOTHER TV gig away from BBC Breakfast after rave reviews on Have I Got News for You
NAGA Munchetty has bagged another TV gig away from BBC Breakfast after hosting Have I Got News for You.
The journalist and anchor, 48, is best known for fronting the flagship morning programme.
Naga typically hosts alongside Charlie Stayt from Thursdays to Saturdays each week.
But lately she’s been handed a string of side gigs, with the most recent being Have I Got News for You.
Her humour and charm was a hit with viewers of the satirical show who demanded she was made the permanent host.
And now it’s confirmed she’ll appear as a guest on Would I Lie to You‘s Christmas special.
The BBC One show’s official social media accounts teased the festive episode to fans.
It posted: “Christmas is coming early… it’s the WILTY festive special THIS FRIDAY, 22nd December at 8pm on @BBCOne. Spread the word!”
Naga could be seen posing with host Rob Brydon along with Lee Mack, Victoria Coren Mitchell, Melvin Hayes and David Mitchell.
Last week Charlie Stayt took a swipe at Naga, branding her ‘unhelpful’ during BBC Breakfast.
During some downtime on the show Charlie attempted a Christmas challenge.
Naga informed viewers at home how every year GCHQ releases a problem-solving test.
But as Charlie got to work with his pen and paper for the challenge he quickly became frustrated with Naga, 48.
