BBC Breakfast: Carol pulled over by guide dog in throwback clip
Dan Walker made a welcome return to BBC Breakfast today in a resurfaced clip, as Carol Kirkwood was shown an embarrassing video.
Carol usually presents the weather from different areas of the country but today, she was in the studio to give the details on what people could expect from the next few days. As she sat down to chat to the presenters, she was shown an old video of her falling over at Chelsea Flower Show live on air.
She recalled how she was at the press preview for the event and hosting a segment when the guide dog in training that she was holding ran off. She kept holding onto the lead, as to not ruin the flower show, and ended up falling over live on air.
Carol explained she had been careful to make sure she didn't let the dog go as she didn't want to ruin the gardens before the public even had a chance to see them. She told Jon and Nina: "I felt like such a prat."
Dan Walker departed the BBC breakfast show back in 2022, when he moved over to Channel 5 News.
"I'm really excited but this has also been a massive decision for me because I love BBC Breakfast, I love working alongside Sally and I love the team there," he said at the time, "But Channel 5 came with big ambitions, with big plans and I don't think opportunities like this come around very often and I can't wait.
"And what an honour to step into the shoes of Sian Williams. I know how popular she is with both the team and also the audience, so all I can say is I will do my best to maintain her incredibly high standards. Thank you for watching and I'll see you soon on a TV screen somewhere."
