BBC Breakfast: Ben says Naga would be 'vicious' in a snowball fight
BBC Breakfast host Naga Munchetty looked less than impressed after a cutting remark on this morning's episode (December 21).
Naga was hosting today's breakfast show alongside Ben Thompson, and the pair were discussing a segment that had just played regarding Wham's Last Christmas making it to Christmas number one in 2024 - 40 years after it was first released.
But as the pair chatted about the festive track, conversation turned to the weather and whether or not there would be snow at Christmas this year.
"I hate to burst someone's bubble, but no white Christmas this year," Naga began, as Ben added: "No snowball fights."
It was at this point that Ben made a remark about Naga, calling her 'vicious'. He said: "I think you would be really vicious in a snowball fight."

Scrunching up her face, Naga turned away from him as she joked: "I don't know what you mean," as the pair began chuckling.
She once again repeated "I don't know what you mean," in a much higher pitch as she swiftly threw to the weather report. Meanwhile, Ben mimicked the throwing of a snowball behind her back.
Lightening the mood, Naga admitted that December 21 was her favourite day of the year as it was the Winter Solstice. But as the weather reporter Simon King began, Naga sternly interjected with a correction.
"You know the pedants get in touch," Naga began."It's not the shortest day."
Simon swiftly clarified to viewers "Oh yes, shortest amount of daylight," as Naga made a noise of approval, before he went into detail about how many hours of light each area would get.
"About eight hours of daylight in south west of England, but yes from today, very gradually to start off with, only by a few seconds, tomorrow will be day-length, a little bit longer"
