BBC Breakfast presenter Sally Nugent was forced to explain the sudden disappearance of one of her co-stars as he "had a tiny bit of a wobble".She explained that perhaps a question was "one too many for him" as the reporter disappeared off-screen, leaving the Breakfast hosts reeling in shock.Sally was hosting the show alongside Jon Kay, with her usual co-host Dan Walker absent from the programme this Wednesday (March 9).Dan Snow was appearing via video link to discuss the finding of Ernest Shackleton's ship Endurance a century after it sank on an Antarctic expedition, buried 3,000 metres under the surface of the water.The expedition which set out to locate the ship found it in good condition under the waves - but doesn't intend to raise the vessel.With Dan on his own ship in the middle of the sea, Jon began by announcing: "Endurance was thought to be lost forever - something consigned to the history books that you might read about, but you never really see or understand because it was trapped under the ever-shifting pack of ice above it."Sally said: "Until now. Endurance has been found at a depth of 3,000 metres."Things then cut to Dan Snow, standing in the cabin of a ship via a rather blurry video-link.And though he valiantly presented a lengthy segment, chaos ensued as Jon said: "So we can look, we can see the footage, but you're not going to touch it?"Only silence followed, as the video link to Dan appeared to drop.Jon told viewers at home: "And with that...

During his stint on Strictly Come Dancing, it made sense for him to be missing on certain days, as he was busy with rehearsals alongside his professional dance partner Nadiya Bychkova.
