BBC Breakfast presenter Nina Warhurst seemed to be missing from the famous red sofa on Sunday morning and was replaced by Luxmy Gopal.

The bubbly host joined Ben Thompson to present the day’s top stories and fans seemed to love the big difference.

Taking to Twitter, BBC viewers said Luxmy was a “breath of fresh air” and begged her to become a regular BBC Breakfast presenter.

While on the social media platform, one person wrote: “You’re a natural Luxmy, hopefully you’re become a regular every morning, a fresh face is needed.”

Another said: “So, it turns out that Sunday is going to be a great day. What a treat to see you on Breakfast again, Luxmy.”

A third penned: “Good morning Luxmy. You are a breath of fresh air to our screens.”

“So nice to see Luxmy brighten up a gloomy & blustery Sunday,” a fourth added.

Luxmy annouced to her fans online that she would be taking the reins on the Sunday programme.

Taking to Twitter, she penned: “Good morning and happy Sunday! Ben, Holly and I are here to keep you company on @BBCBreakfast.”

The broadcaster also added: “On @BBCBreakfast we’ll be speaking to @GylesB1 @KateWilliamsme @RFitzwilliams about the 70th anniversary of the Queen’s accession & her wish that Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, will be known as Queen Consort when the time comes.”

“We’ll be discussing the growing pressure on Prime Minister Boris Johnson plus his new appointments with @janemerrick23 @AVMikhailova @BBCHelenCatt on @BBCBreakfast.”

Wearing a white polka dot dress with a pair of sheer tights, several fans described Luxmy as a “treat” on the show.

As well as discussing the latest developments regarding the Royal family and the Queen’s decision to step down from her role, Luxmy and Ben also spoke about the popular soap Neighbours and how it will soon be dropped from the UK TV schedule after nearly four decades.

Ben showed his evident sadness regarding the cancellation and mentioned it heavily throughout Sunday morning’s programme and how he was a fan of the show.
