BBC BREAKFAST was caught up in an awkward blunder as the show's replacement weatherman gatecrashed a live interview.
The flagship Beeb programme was on air as normal today as Sally Nugent and Ben Thompson presented.
Jon Kay, who typically sits beside Sally, 51, on the iconic red sofa, was nowhere to be seen.
Fan favourite Carol Kirkwood, who fronts the weather bulletins, was also missing.
Instead BBC weatherman Matt Taylor stood in to bring viewers the latest forecast.
During the show John Watson joined Sally and Ben on the sofa to run through the latest sports news, including tonight's Newcastle Premier League game against Milan.

However, things didn't go according to plan.
Matt appeared behind the journalist as he was up next to present the forecast on the big screen.
After spotting him on a monitor, John joked: "I think Matt's going to be enjoying it as well, he looks eager, doesn't he?"
Ben and Sally then erupted into laughter before she quipped; "It's alright Matt, nobody noticed."
