Naga Munchetty was left fuming at her BBC colleague Carol Kirkwood when she “spoiled” her Christmas Day report during a broadcast.
BBC weather girl Carol Kirkwood had been telling viewers about what they can expect from the next couple of days before the segment descended into chaos.
Naga had become rather baffled at Carol’s Christmas forecast – and decided to stop the show.
Carol was just wrapping up her Christmas Eve forecast for the day (December 24) leading into the morning of Christmas Day – which she had planned to tell viewers about later in the show.

Wrapping up the report, Carol said: “Temperature wise tonight, cold in the north, not as cold as we come further south, and I’ll bring you the Christmas Day forecast in about half an hour, Naga and Charlie…”
Naga’s co-star Charlie Stayt thanked Carol, but Naga pointed at her and asked: “I’m a bit confused. Carol finished on Saturday. Did she skip… that is Christmas Day, Saturday, isn’t it Carol?”
Carol replied: “Yes,” before pointing to the text on her screen with the weather graphics on it.
Charlie stepped in to explain that Carol was going to tell viewers more about Christmas Day later in the show.

He told her: “Look, it says Christmas Day up there but it says six in the morning…”
Naga realised that Charlie had been blocking the screen, and told him: “Oh, right! That’s what I didn’t see because you were in the way.”
Charlie continued: “She’s going to do the rest of Christmas Day later on,”, and Munchetty replied: “Yes, thank you.”
However, the segment took a turn for the worse when Carol began revealing the forecast for Christmas Day despite initially explaining that she’d do so later in the show.

Carol said: “During the day… I’m going to tell you whether it’s going to be a white Christmas or not, but I’ll tell you now, for most of us it’s not going to be a white Christmas-“
Gutted Naga felt that Carol “spoiled” the surprise, and she cried out: “Don’t spoil it!”
Kirkwood burst out laughing as she continued anyway: “Because there’s snow in the tops of the hills in Wales.”
Naga laughed as she said: “You teased it and now you’re spoiling it!”

Charlie rushed to Carol’s defence, telling Naga: “No what happened was Carol had planned out that she was going to just hold back a little bit of the information…”
He then accused Naga of forcing Carol to reveal the Christmas Day forecast.
Charlie added: “Then she was under duress and required to spill the beans on the whole thing!”, which left Carol and Naga in stitches.
Naga quipped: “Here’s me forcing Carol to tell us the weather!”
