Frustrated BBC Breakfast fans issue same complaint as one demands 'refund on TV licence'
BBC Breakfast returned to our screens this Sunday (August 18), with BBC presenters Luxmy Gopal and Roger Johnson stepping back in to host the show. While the pair had plenty of important news stories breaking from all around the world, some fans still had one particular gripe with the show.
Today’s news included an update on the Israel-Gaza war, a story about the importance of making air travel more accessible and an interview with Olympic champion Keely Hodgkinson. However, some eagle-eyed viewers noticed that some content had been repeated by the broadcaster, taking to social media to voice their irritation.
Introducing the segment, Roger said: “Now it’s time for the latest technology news on this week’s edition of Click.” The programme then cut away to a pre-recorded section of the show, Click, which was this week focusing on a cutting-edge new sustainable scooter.
The programme explored how the scooter is made and how it compares to other high-end competitors. The vehicle in question goes into production later this year, and it will cost €15,000.
While some technology fans might have enjoyed the segment, others were frustrated that they’d seen the scooter before. Taking to X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, some viewers expressed their disappointment at the repeat.

“Oy.......nooo not click again it was on yesterday #bbcbreakfast,” one fan lamented with crying and woozy emojis. (sic)
Another tweeted: “#bbcbreakfast Third time I've seen this episode of #click in two days…
“Can I get a refund on my TV licence?” they asked. (sic)
“Three times .....that's terrible,” the other fan tweeted back in response with a prayer emoji. (sic)
“I bet it's not the full version either,” one more theorised, before admitting with a laughing emoji: “I like watching Click but can do without the repeats.”

It comes after Luxmy apologised this morning while introducing a divisive segment on the residents of South Tyneside, who claim their area has been overrun with rats.
“Sorry if you’re a bit squeamish about this because this one might make you squirm,” Luxmy said apologetically at the start of the news segment.
During the broadcast, the BBC interviewed several residents about the ordeal, with one person even catching a rat that was 18 inches long. Many have blamed the build-up of rubbish in the area.
“Well sorry again if you’re squeamish of rats, or have rat phobia, but it was, don’t judge me, I thought it was quite cute the way that one of them came out to sneak a chip," Luxmy admitted afterwards.
BBC Breakfast airs from 6am on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
