BBC Breakfast star Carol Kirkwood was forced to shut down her co-star Charlie Stayt as he asked if she would consider going to space.

During Thursday’s episode of the hit show, Charlie took on hosting duties alongside co-host Naga Munchetty as they discussed the week's top stories.

During one segment the duo spoke about the two American astronauts, who are still unable to return home two months after heading off to a test mission to the international space station.

Charlie couldn’t help but ask his fellow co-star if she would ever considering travelling to space if given the opportunity.

Turning to Carol, who was on a screen, he asked: “My question for Carol this morning is, if you had a ticket available to you now would you go to space?”

It was clear that Carol was not onboard with the idea as she quickly replied: “No. Easy answer.” Charlie asked: “But why not?”

Carol revealed: “I just don’t fancy it and I like being down here on earth thanks Charlie. It just doesn’t appeal to me at all but I like looking at satellites, that’s it.”
