BBC Breakfast in huge shake-up as presenter goes ‘missing’ from Saturday’s show
VIEWERS tuning into BBC Breakfast this morning were left confused after a familiar face was “missing” from the show.
Instead, the popular morning news programme underwent a huge shake up which saw another presenter stepping in.
BBC Breakfast fans are used to seeing Charlie Stay, 60, hosting the show at the weekend alongside Naga Munchetty, 47.
Since making his debut back in 2006, Charlie is a regular on the red sofa, hosting the news programme from Thursday to Saturday.
But fans hoping to kick off their weekend with the popular presenter got a shock when another face was seen hosting the show instead.
Filling in for Charlie is journalist Roger Johnson, who is best known for presenting regional BBC programme North West Tonight.
He joined the BBC Breakfast team in 2012, and often covers at the weekend when the main presenters are off.
Roger’s appearance during Saturday’s show isn’t his first this week – as he fronted the programme yesterday too.
BBC Breakfast has undergone a huge shake up with their presenting line-up over the last week.
Earlier this week, Ben Thompson, 41, stood in for regular host Jon Kay, 53, on Tuesday’s and Wednesday’s programmes alongside Sally Nugent.
Like Roger, Ben is also one of Breakfast’s batch of relief presenters who to are called in to host the show when the main presenters are off.
BBC Breakfast airs daily from 6am on BBC One.
