BBC Breakfast's Naga Munchetty tells co-star to 'try harder' in cheeky swipe

BBC Breakfast's Naga Munchetty couldn't resist a playful dig towards her co-presenter suggesting she ought to "try harder".

Returning to Saturday's episode (September 14) on the iconic red sofa, Naga was accompanied by co-presenter Ben Thompson. The lively banter kicked off as they welcomed weather presenter Sarah Keith-Lucas.

Commenting on the recent weather forecasts, straight-talking Naga was unhappy with the lack of sunny weather and inconsistent weather. She said: "It's been a while Sarah that I haven't whined at our forecasters and I'm not whining at you today."

Playing along, Ben jokingly blamed the forecasters with Naga adding: "Yes, particularly Sarah's!" When Sarah quipped: "I mean a try but it doesn't always work out," reports the Express.

Naga playfully retorted: "Keep trying harder. Try harder, you're doing better today!" She followed it up with laughter while segueing into the next part of the broadcast, with Ben also seen chuckling at the remark.

Their good-natured interaction continued later in the programme with both Ben and Naga offering applause after Sarah shared a more positive weather forecast.

"There you go Sarah, another round of applause for you!" Naga declared cheerily.

This wasn't the first instance of Naga's banter this week either. On Friday (September 13), she shared screen time with regular anchor Charlie Stayt.

Shortly into the broadcast, Naga couldnt resist playfully teasing her co-host Charlie, aged 62, who seemed visibly uncomfortable with a particular part of the show where they were in conversation with correspondent Hywel Griffith about flying pests in Wales.

Naga mentioned: "Residents of a village in South Wales say they've been inundated by a mysterious swarm of flies."
