RTE star Jennifer Zamparelli has told of her frustrations at being left stranded in the UK due to the arctic blast.
The Dubliner had to fly to Bristol last Friday to attend a family funeral on Monday – but was forced to go back home and come back to Dublin Airport on Sunday after hundreds of flights were cancelled at the weekend because of the cold snap.
Speaking to Aifric O'Connell, who had to fill in for Jennifer on the show at the last minute, she said: “I can’t believe what’s happened. The thing is we had to come to the UK for a family funeral so there was no way I wasn’t coming over for Monday, but we left on Friday to the airport, we were there for four hours… the joy of seeing the Breakfast crew in Terminal 2 as passing ships in the night… they were having an absolute ball.
