We’ve barely stopped laughing about the last BBC Breakfast gaffe and they go and drop another clanger.
It was Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon who fell foul of a hilarious balls-up on the Beeb’s flagship breakfast show.
While Charlie Stayt was introducing a segment on the SNP leader, someone rolled a video clip of a large and surly-looking gorilla over the top.
Stayt apologised and his fellow presenter Naga Munchetty had to stifle a smirk. If you’ve somehow missed it, here it is.

But just days later and there was another gaffe on Stayt’s watch, this time with guest Catherine Tate in the studio.
He had a stab at one of the comedian’s famous catchphrases during the programmes on Monday morning, but didn’t even get the right show.
Instead of a classic line from The Catherine Tate Show, he ended up blurting out something from David Walliams and Matt Lucas’ Little Britain.
“Yes, but no, but,” Stayt painfully said, before Tate could interject with “Yes, but no, but, is not me, but. Yes, but no, but, that was Little Britain, but. Oh my goodness.”
She then wheeled out her actual catchphrase used by teenager Lauren Cooper in The Catherine Tate Show.
“Am I bovvered though? Am I bovvered that you got it wrong? Look at my face. Is my face bovvered that you got my catchphrase wrong?”
Our toes still won’t uncurl, and neither will anyone else’s…
