Dan Walker gave fans a rare tour inside the BBC Breakfast studios - but he couldn't help having a laugh with co-star Sally Nugent as he did so.The BBC presenter took to Twitter to share a clip just before his morning show on Tuesday (March 22), which he anchors Monday to Wednesday from 6am.In the upbeat video, Dan and his co-host Sally could be seen walking onto their set at MediaCityUk in Salford.Chatting to his fans, Dan said: "Just wondering through the BBC Breakfast offices.

BBC Breakfast star Dan Walker sent a hilarious message to a gardener cutting grass during Carol Kirkwood's weather report.BBC weather expert Carol had been trying to deliver her weather report from the gorgeous gardens of St. James' Park in London on Tuesday (March 22) when her segment took a disastrous turn.Despite her best efforts to tell viewers all about what conditions they can expect from the day, Carol's live report began to dissolve as the picture became distorted and the audio became unclear.For the viewers at home, Carol's weather report was fragmented and they missed out vital parts of her beloved weather insights.Show hosts Dan Walker and Sally Nugent quickly spotted the technical gaffe as Dan could be heard saying: "Oh" in the background of the studio.Ever the professional, Carol still managed to make it to the end of her report regardless of the interruptions.However, if the technical issues hadn't been enough of a problem, the hosts had also noticed a loud lawnmower running in the background of Carol's broadcast - and they were quick to comment on it.At first, they thought it was a leafblower, but when Carol told them it was somebody cutting the grass, Dan jokingly told them to stop interrupting their BBC show.Sally said: "That is good to know, Carol.

BBC Breakfast star Dan Walker left one fan upset when he failed to mention his old co-star Louise Minchin in a chat about BBC hosts on Twitter.The disgruntled social media user asked Dan: "What about Louise Minchin?" before telling the former Strictly star they 'hadn't forgotten' about her.Dan had thanked another fan for saying him and his current co-host Sally Nugent was the "best presenter combination" on the hit morning show, which they present Monday to Wednesday from 6am.The viewer wrote: "There’s no doubt in my mind, @mrdanwalker and @sallynugent are the best presenter combination on @BBCBreakfast in a long time."Dan was grateful for the compliment and thanked the fan on the social media platform, writing: "Thanks for watching Matt."However, one user replied: "Hey what about @louiseminchin? I haven’t forgotten about her @mrdanwalker"Other fans were quick to point out Dan's former colleague Louise in response to the viewer's original tweet about Dan and Sally.One commented: "What about the lovely Louise Minchin? I thought she was ace!"A second said: "I think they are great but @louiseminchin was excellent."A third commented: "They are equally as awesome as @mrdanwalker and @louiseminchin were. "They chose a fabulous person to replace Louise in @sallynugent, the only fitting person for the job, love her!"Dan's good pal Louise left BBC Breakfast after almost 20 years on the red sofa - having first presented the BBC one show in 2001.She admitted she stayed on the show "much longer" than she was meant to as she loved working with Dan so much.On her last show in September, she told Dan: "Because of you I've stayed much longer than I was meant to," she said.

BBC Breakfast star Dan Walker has dropped a major hint he wants his co-star Sally Nugent to sign up for Strictly Come Dancing.The TV presenter made it all the way to the semi-finals on the last series of the BBC ballroom show with his pro dancing partner Nadiya Bychkova - losing out to winners Rose Ayling-Ellis and Giovanni Pernice.Now, it seems Dan wants his BBC co-star Sally to give Strictly a go, because he gave her his blessing live on their BBC Breakfast show.On Monday's broadcast (March 21), Dan told Sally he wanted to 'hand the Strictly baton over to her' - teasing she should do the hit dancing show next.Dan said: "I've got a bit of fun for you this morning.

BBC Breakfast star Dan Walker was trying to deliver a link on his hit morning show - but it all went wrong when he started giggling with co-star Sally Nugent.In fact, the BBC presenters were laughing so much in front of the cameras that Dan could barely finish his on-air segment, and former Strictly star Dan was forced to apologise to the viewers at home.It all started after a news segment on waste had played on Monday's broadcast (March 21), and Dan was ready to hand viewers over to his colleague for the latest news, travel and weather.It wasn't long before his segment took a rather amusing turn, though.Sitting on the famous TV red sofa, Dan turned to Sally and said of the segment: "It's fascinating that, isn't it?"However, smiling Sally already looked close to bursting out in fits of laughter, perhaps at one of Dan's cheeky quips during the segment that had just finished airing.Trying to stay professional, Dan started saying: "Time now to get the news, travel and the weather wherever you're watching..."He then started chuckling and couldn't stop, eventually apologising to his viewers for the blunder as he said: "Sorry!"Luckily, they were able to move viewers on to the next segment before it got any worse, because the lovable pair were still grinning when the cameras were panning away.Dan and Sally recently enjoyed a star-studded night out with their Breakfast colleagues and Dan's Strictly Come Dancing pals.Sally took to the Strictly dancefloor for the Rob Burrow Strictly Ball in a bid to raise money for the fight against Motor Neurone Disease.It saw Strictly partners Dan and Nadiya Bychkova reunite on the judging panel for the ball, and Nadiya even danced with with her co-star Kai Widdrington.Sally spoke about her
