Carol Kirkwood has shut down rumours of a feud with her BBC Breakfast co-star Naga Munchetty, following a series of jibes on the show. The meteorologist shrugged off claims of a rift with the journalist and revealed their on-screen exchanges are "just banter", as reported by the Daily Record.
In recent times, however, eagle-eyed viewers have noticed two occasions where Naga appeared to take aim at Carol's age and called her "really stern" during a spat over the Christmas Day forecast. Naga also seemingly hit out at Carol after an embarrassing name blunder live on air.
The weather presenter handed her report back to Naga but she accidentally mispronounced her name. Wrapping up her report, Carol said: "The winds will be lighter, just a few showers coming in from the north-west and temperatures ranging from nine to 13 degrees, Nana."

Correcting her mistake, she immediately apologised to her co-star and said: "Naga, sorry, we’ve got a producer called Nana." Naga jibed back, adding: "You say that every single time," Naga jibed back, adding: "And I come and visit you and have a cup of tea."
However, Carol has hit back and rubbished claims of a feud between the two. She said to The Sun: "I love Naga and we just have banter. I love the camaraderie between us and everyone. It’s a good, fun job."
Carol also shared an embarrassing on-air blunder that left her red faced. She accidentally said she had seen "lots of doggers" in a London park live on air - when she meant to say dogs and runners.
