Naga Munchetty had an amusing on-air moment on BBC Breakfast when she was left stunned to learn that palm trees grow in the UK. During Friday’s show, Naga and co-host Charlie Stayt had just watched a report on extreme weather in Australia—dangerous winds, severe flooding, the lot. Looking for a weather update closer to home, she turned to meteorologist Sarah Keith-Lucas.
Trying to reassure viewers, Naga said: “Thankfully, nothing quite as traumatic here.” But then, she was completely thrown off by the backdrop behind Sarah—a bright, sunny scene complete with palm trees. Surprised, she blurted out: “Wow! What a contrast, Sarah”, reported Lancs Live.
