BBC Breakfast fans have been left disappointed after the show was taken off air once again due to the Paris Olympics, with Ben Thompson and Sally Nugent presenting the last hour on BBC Two.
BBC Breakfast viewers may feel slightly disoriented today as the normal routine on BBC One gives way to the excitement of Olympic coverage starting at 8am.
Sally informed viewers with a reminder: "Now we are on BBC Two until 9am this morning," while Ben chimed in with a farewell as they wrapped up their segment on BBC One. This rearrangement follows the recent curtailment of Naga Munchetty and Charlie Stayt's Saturday edition, when preference was given to broadcasting the eagerly awaited commencement of the Paris Olympics instead of their weekend slot - a decision that was met with mixed reactions from the audience.
One viewer expressed their frustration on social media, posting: "@BBCNews you've cut #bbcbreakfast short! Can't the Olympics wait till 9? Or put it on News24? " Another added to the chorus of complaints with a tweet that read:"#bbcbreakfast I might as well do my big shop at 8:00am.. #OlympicGames."
