BBC Breakfast Cut Short by Fire Alarm During Live Broadcast

BBC Breakfast was forced off air early on Saturday after a fire alarm interrupted the live broadcast. The incident occurred while presenters Roger Johnson and Rachel Burden were interviewing The Apprentice winner Harpreet Kaur.

The alarm triggered an evacuation of the studio, cutting the interview short. Viewers saw the presenters leave their seats as the programme abruptly ended.

It was later confirmed to be a false alarm. The programme's official Twitter account reassured viewers, stating: 'Everyone is safe and is back in the building.'
