BBC Breakfast star Dan Walker, 45, announced he would be leaving the early morning show after six years with the broadcaster.
Dan had been sharing the red sofa with co-host Sally Nugent, 50, who he gave an “awkward” reaction to after she cheekily quizzed him on his exit.On Monday morning, Dan shared a hilarious clip from his time on BBC Breakfast with his 755,000 Twitter followers.
In the video, his co-star Sally could be giggling beside him on the sofa thanks to a rather unfortunate turn of phrase.Reporting on a story involving garden gnomes, Dan began: “Err… So if you would like to show us your gnomes… Or your favourite knick knacks…” At this point Dan had to stop because Sally had burst out laughing at what sounded like a rather euphemistic request.In a fit of giggles himself, Dan repeated: “Show us your gnomes!”Sally later explained that it was “the way Dan said” the phrase that meant she couldn’t stop laughing, while Dan agreed that it “did sound a bit rude”. “I am going to miss Sally,” Dan captioned the clip with a laughing emoji.
