BBC Breakfast host Sally Nugent was left in hysterics as weather presenter Carol Kirkwood lashed out at her co-star Jon Kay.
Carol’s job was more important than ever given the snow and ice warnings blanketing the UK, with travel disruption across the country.
Carol was discussing the forecast for the next few days on Tuesday (December 13) when Jon interrupted with a pretty standard question.

But Carol was less than impressed – and made it clear.
Jon said: “Is it quite unusual that so much of the UK is hit by this cold weather? It seems like pretty much everyone is getting it at the same time.”
Carol snapped back: “Well you’ve got to remember that it is winter, Jon, which of course I know you do. But we certainly are way below the average temperatures so yes, it is quite unusual.”
Adding insult to injury, she added: “But we expect cold weather, of course, in the winter.”
Sally, meanwhile, was trying hard to stifle her giggles – but a few stray chuckles got past her microphone.
She couldn’t help but laugh: “Oh Carol! I just love that. We’ve got to remember it is winter. Poor Jon!”
Jon agreed: “Yeah, poor Jon.”
Carol told him: “I know, I know. But do you know what, lots of people say that to us all the time.
“It’s cold! It’s winter, what do you expect?” she asked. “And they’re right!”

Jon mimicked her: “‘Even some intelligent people say that too, Jon!’ Thank you very much.”
As Carol told him: “Not true at all, Jon. You know I think you’re the bee’s knees!”
Sally, still laughing, told her pal: “Carol, we love you very much.”
Carol, busy promoting the BBC Weather app, giggled: “I must say, our weather app is getting a good plug here, isn’t it?”
As Jon giggled: “Keep swiping, keep swiping! We’ll swipe you off! See you later.”
“Thank you, Carol,” Sally said – before both presenters quickly sobered up and turned back to the topic of the ongoing strikes.
