Sharing a video on Instagram, Naga said to the camera: “I’ve just done the Breakfast shift and just nipped in to give some blood, it will over in about 15 to 20 minutes.

“I’m feeling good but the thing that makes me feel most good is that hopefully it will save someone’s life.”

“Good morning! @bbcbreakfast work done,” she captioned the clip.
