Charlie Stayt was forced to present BBC Breakfast alone on Friday, November 18. The host started the show alongside his co-star Naga Munchetty but was forced to explain her absence less than thirty minutes into the episode.
Naga appeared to be struggling with her voice as the pair introduced the show, with the fact not going unnoticed by BBC Breakfast viewers. "Somebody give Naga a Strepsil," wrote one fan, while another added: "Oooh Naga you poor thing. Hope your lovely voice recovers soon."
Shortly after Charlie was seen on the sofa alone and addressed Naga's absence with viewers. He said: "You may have noticed this morning, Naga has just stepped away from the sofa for a minute with a slight struggle with her voice."
