Dave Grohl, the Foo Fighters frontman, was forced to cancel an appearance on Saturday Kitchen Live after getting stuck in Hollywood following Storm Eunice.
The rocker was planning to travel from America to appear as a guest on the BBC Two cooking show.
Bastille lead singer Dan Smith stepped in at the last minute to “save the day”, show host Matt Tebbutt said.
Tebbutt said: “Our special guest was supposed to be the legendary Dave Grohl. Unfortunately, thanks to Storm Eunice, Dave is stuck in LA.
“Thankfully at the last minute, and I really mean the last minute, the lead singer of the brilliant Brit Award-winning band Bastille has come to save the day, and I could not be happier that he is here. I’m relieved.”
Hundreds of flights to and from the UK were cancelled on Friday as planes struggled to land at airports due to high winds.
Many were diverted or required several attempts before touching down as Storm Eunice battered the country.
