Naga Munchetty hits out at Charlie Stayt over 'betrayal' on BBC show

It comes as the BBC Breakfast duo, who regularly present together, took part in a celebrity edition of The Weakest Link. After a tough round, Charlie voted for Naga to be eliminated from the quiz show, causing a tense rift in the studio. Speaking after the awkward vote-off, Naga confessed she felt “betrayed” and threatened “revenge”.

In one round of the revived classic hosted by Romesh Ranganathan, Naga’s name was selected by her fellow players when it came to elimination time.

To add insult to injury, Charlie even opted to vote for Naga as the weakest contestant.

As an awkward silence fell upon the studio, Naga remarked: “Oh yes.”

Justifying his decision, Charlie claimed he picked Naga because she had been the only other player to have incorrectly answered a question.

While the programme’s hosts are changed in a rotating schedule, each is paired with a colleague who they continue to present alongside.

Charlie and Naga normally front the show from Thursdays to Saturdays, so have built a strong rapport.

The “betrayal” will likely have shocked Naga as they pair share a history of working together.

The Weakest Link special saw daytime TV stars including Fern Britton, Owain Wyn Evans, Mr Motivator, Carol McGiffin, Diarmuid.
