BBC Breakfast host Jon Kay ripped into Morning Live presenter Gethin Jones on air.
It appears Jon was feeling savage when he woke up on Wednesday morning (March 13), because he decided to have a cheeky pop at Gethin’s stripy outfit. Gethin and co-star Kym Walsh were beamed into the studio to tease what they had coming up on Morning Live at 9.30.
The pair revealed that they would be catching up with Radio 1 host Mollie King on her Red Nose Day cycling challenge. The former Saturdays singer is attempting to cycle 500km from London to Hull in five days to raise funds for Comic Relief ahead of Red Nose Day on Friday.

Gethin was wearing a black quarter-zip sweatshirt with white stripes across his chest. Jon reckoned his BBC colleague looked like a “pedestrian crossing” and wasn’t afraid to mock his co-star by pointing it out.
His Breakfast co-star Sally Nugent had spotted that both Gethin and Kym were wearing stripes. Kym was sporting a red jumper (fitting for Red Nose Day) and wide-leg trousers with a black and white stripe down the middle.
Sally said: “Loving the stripes both. I like the way you’ve coordinated there.” Kym said: “Thank you,” while Gethin proudly said: “[You’re] welcome”.
Jon cheekily said: “It’s like a pedestrian crossing, isn’t it? Live from BBC One at 9.30. Morning Live.” Gethin and Kym took the outfit dig well as they burst out laughing, and Sally looked shocked as she looked around the studio nervously.
“I hope they speak to us after this,” she said, adding: “Good job they’ve gone. They can’t hear us now, for sure…”
Jon quipped: “Always make the dig in at the end”. Sally replied: “Exactly!”.
Jon and Sally host BBC Breakfast from Monday to Wednesday every week, Jon became a full-time presenter in 2022, whereas Sally took over from Louise Minchin in 2021.
