BBC Breakfast’s Sally Nugent replaced by a familiar face in yet another unexpected presenter shake-up

BBC Breakfast host Sally Nugent was replaced on Wednesday’s show in yet another unexpected presenter shake-up.

Despite having joined Jon Kay in the studio earlier in the week the 52-year-old’s seat was taken by the show’s business correspondent Victoria Valentine, 39.

There have been several hosting changes this month, including meteorologist Carol Kirkwood being replaced by Sarah Keith-Lucas.

Despite the shake-up viewers loved ‘new duo’ Victoria and Jon and called for the change to a permanent one.

Taking to Twitter one asked: ‘Can we have the wonderful Victoria Valentine every day please?’. 

While another added: ‘Victoria is doing well , surely she’s next in line for a job for the top job’.

And a third said: ‘Such a lovely relaxed vibe on breakfast this morning maybe John & Victoria could be a permanent duo’.

With someone else commenting: ‘I will watch #BBCBreakfast everyday if Victoria Valentine was presenting’.

And: ‘I must say Victoria is a breath of fresh air on BBC1 breakfast this morning’.

It comes after Carol was replaced by Sarah Keith-Lucas who brought viewers the latest weather updates.

Other shake-ups have seen Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty taking some time off to enjoy the summer holidays.

Recently Carol was left red-faced once again after host Jon noticed a funny blunder during her live report.

She had an awkward interaction with the broadcaster as she kicked off her look at the latest forecast.

As Carol gushed about a picturesque snap sent in by one of their viewers, Jon was quick to point out an element she’d failed to notice.

He noted: ‘Right, it’s just after 10 to eight and you know Carol gets beautiful pictures from all over the UK from you everyday that just encapsulate the weather.

‘Well, this morning she’s got a cracker, I think that’s how you say it.’

Laughing, Carol turned to the image on her screen, and said: ‘It is. It’s beautiful. I am looking at the sky of course Jon. I don’t know what you’re looking at.’

But Jon was quick to remark that he ‘wasn’t looking at the sky.’  

While Carol’s image did include a gorogeous blue skyline over a road, it was somewhat spoiled by a line of portable toilets.

She told Jon: ‘I didn’t notice that when I pulled it in unfortunately.

‘But it is lovely isn’t it? This is one of our weather watcher’s pictures taken a wee bit earlier in John O’Groats in the Highlands.’

Carol then quickly moved on from the gaffe and straight into her weather report.
