BBC Breakfast fans 'switch off' as presenter makes controversial Christmas comment
Fans of BBC Breakfast "switched off" on Saturday morning as they saw an unexpected face appear on screen. Naga Munchetty and Ben Thompson were at the helm of the popular show but as someone else showed up fans were less than impressed.
Jeremy Vine made a special appearance, donned in a Christmas jumper, as he spoke about the chances of having a white Christmas and Christmas films. The Channel 5 star sat next to a roaring fire, bringing a festive feeling to the show.
He said: "A lot of what governs our behaviour, our memories and thoughts is Hollywood and it's that thing that someone just synced up snow and Christmas in movies."
The presenter then went on to share a controversial opinion as he added: "The most awful one being that, what's that garbage?" He took a second to think before continuing: "It's a Wonderful Life.

Jeremy Vine shared his comments on BBC Breakfast (Image: BBC )Fans at home were not too impressed with his comments or his appearance. Taking to Twitter, one fan wrote: "Veremy Vine ! - But then again .. I suppose BBC sees Vine as some warm-hearted 'uncle-figure' !!??? #bbcbreakfast."
Another added: "Just when you think #bbcbreakfast couldn’t possibly get any worse, up pops #jeremyvine," with a third adding: "Jeremy Vine? I'm off. #BBCBreakfast."
Someone else penned: "Who writes this s**t? I’ve seen the dreadful Jeremy Vine four times now unfortunately running the whole gamut of emotions from A to B and some woman in glasses telling us how she had to bunk up with her new husband because of a bit of snow for their anniversary #BBCBreakfast."
Earlier this week, Naga upset fans with some bad news. She and her co-host Ben Thompson had just been discussing the weather over the Christmas period.

"I hate to burst someone's bubble, but no white Christmas this year," Naga began, as Ben added: "No snowball fights."
Lead BBC weather presenter Simon King joined them on the episode to share insight into host Naga's "favourite day", the Winter Solstice.
"No white Christmas, it has been mild, but listen I know this is your favourite day of the year, isn't it?" Simon began, gesturing toward Naga.
"Today is!" Naga exclaimed, as Simon confirmed to the audience: "It's the Winter Solstice - and it's the shortest day."
