BBC Breakfast presenter Naga Munchetty suffered an awkward moment on Saturday morning when she mistakenly told viewers the wrong time. The blunder occurred as she was updating the audience on the clock, initially stating it was '13 minutes past one' before quickly correcting herself to '13 minutes past seven'.
Co-host Charlie Stayt was quick to interject, offering a possible explanation for the slip. He suggested that Munchetty might have been distracted by the recent return of the Artemis II crew, which splashed down in the Pacific at 1:07am. 'You're stuck in that moment maybe?' he asked.
Munchetty, visibly flustered, exclaimed 'Oh no!' and admitted, 'I don't even know what I was thinking!' She then reassured viewers that they had neither overslept nor woken up too early, confirming the correct time as 7:13am.
The Artemis II mission saw astronauts travel 252,756 miles from Earth, breaking the distance record previously held by Apollo 13. The crew, including Victor Glover, were reported to be 'happy and healthy' after their historic journey around the far side of the Moon.
