Naga on breakfast re binoculars....

She rolled her eyes and pursed her lips for bloody ages over a stupid binoculars mention by Charlie. How rude and inappropriate! Why is this tolerated? It was bloody cringeworthy to watch and the producers had to switch over...
She needs a good head wobble

Eh??

Noangelbuthavingfun · 25/03/2023 09:46

Aibu this is not the place and breakfast tele can be lighthearted but not overtly rude ?

Could you give a little more detail? What is a “stupid binoculars mention”?

Noangelbuthavingfun · 25/03/2023 09:49

Sorry this just happened today - on BBC1 . I'm pretty sure it will be in news with a link to watch soon. It was right after the discussion about a meteor passing earth at some point and Charlie said he wondered if you could see it with binoculars.... if I find a link I'll post it !
Some mumsnetters will have seen it today

Haha I just saw this and thought her reaction was really really weird!

Kissedbyfire1 · 25/03/2023 09:53

She’s unwatchable. So rude, I don’t know how she gets away with it. I’ve stopped watching morning tv.

Noangelbuthavingfun · 25/03/2023 09:54

Dear lord this isn't even what I'm referring to - the eye rolling happened right after this ! They are clearly grating on each other 😄
Happy to discuss this clip tho ! Lololo

I knew this would be an Express link. Charlie and Naga get on just fine. I am convinced he says stuff just to wind her up though.

Do you ? Interesting thought ... I'll have to watch closer now! She's forever rolling her eyes and trying to make him look thick. She needs to stop...how on earth she's still there I don't know ...

She seems rude in general. Her and Charlie are awful to watch.

70Cats · 25/03/2023 10:01

Just wish she would speak correctly. Sound comes through her nose. I have trouble with hearing so many people on TV.

Livingfortheweekends · 25/03/2023 10:07

The whole thing was so awkward!

HaggisBurger · 25/03/2023 10:14

Ah ok. Gotcha. I hate it when there is an atmosphere between presenters. Ronan Keating and Harriet Scott are like this on Magic breakfast. He clearly doesn’t like her and she thinks he’s a bit thick. Which he kind of is.

Mynewname2023 · 25/03/2023 10:16

Naga and Charlie definitely don’t get on. She always seems really rude and insulting

Eatentoomanyroses · 25/03/2023 10:18

I was interviewed by her last year. I use the term ‘interviewed’ loosely. She was extremely rude and shut me down when I was trying to raise an important issue relating to children’s health. I was interviewed along side a very minor celebrity and she was more interested in fanning her ego

Bonjovispjs · 25/03/2023 10:21

Awful woman, can't stand her.

Reallybadidea · 25/03/2023 10:24

Seems to me like the sort of banterish exchange that happens between people who know each other well. I can imagine exactly the same sort of exchange in our office at work.

Phos · 25/03/2023 10:28

This isn't the first time she's been rude, I also noticed her talking over him. And who could forget the absolutely excruciating interview with Sir David Attenborough?

CrapBucket · 25/03/2023 10:33

I love Naga, she is very clever and has a wicked sense of humour.

Greentree1 · 25/03/2023 10:39

Just banter.

smashinggrapes · 25/03/2023 11:06

@CrapBucket hi Naga

Dr Jeni Millard had just finished saying that we won't see 'The City Killer' asteroid in the Northern Hemisphere as it’ll be below the horizon to us but Charlie Stayt seemed to think that given the right pair of binoculars, he would still be able to..be

I love Naga. If she's pulling a face on BBC Breakfast, I'm probably doing exactly that in my house.Grin

HaveYouSeenNancy · 25/03/2023 11:43

They can't stand each other (my nephew worked with them for 18 months). I can't watch Naga; her idea of interviewing is to tell her interviewee everything she knows and all of her opinions on it. She's not interested at all in their thoughts/expertise.
