BBC Breakfast host Naga Munchetty shared a rare family memory on Saturday morning as she warned weatherman Simon King about a popular Christmas gift.

Viewers watching BBC Breakfast on Saturday morning (November 22) got an unusual peek into Naga Munchetty’s childhood as she revealed a cautionary tale live on air.

Charlie Stayt was alongside Naga for presenting duties today, with the conversation quickly shifting to must-have Christmas presents from their younger days.

Charlie revealed that the BBC breakfast crew had been discussing “iconic” festive gifts, including items the team had desperately wanted but never received during their childhood.

“There are lots of people who will never forgive their parents for not giving them something that they really wanted,” he began, as Naga pushed him for his response.

“No, not me actually,” he clarified, before adding: “Though I did want an action man and it wasn’t allowed – but that was a very long time ago,” as giggles could be heard from the production team, reports the Express.

The presenting pair then turned to weatherman Simon King who revealed he had always longed for a slushie maker during his youth. However, Naga was swift to jump in with a cautionary message.

“My cousins had one,” she began. “And I was really envious of it.”

Carrying on with her story, she explained: “I’ll make you feel better. That product then, a long time ago, when you used to scrunch it because it was a slush-making machine, bits of plastic used to come out as well.

“So it was never very good, so you didn’t miss out,” she added, comforting her colleague.

A relieved-looking Simon responded: “Good, I’m glad for that thank you,” before returning his focus to the weather forecast.

BBC Breakfast is broadcast every day on BBC One and iPlayer starting at 6am.

Beloved animated franchise Toy Story is returning to our screens after six years, with the iconic characters competing against technology for the affection of their kids

Toy Story fans are heading to infinity and beyond once again as the animated franchise returns for its fifth film – with the first teaser trailer being released. While many fans are queuing up to buy cinema tickets already, some have spotted a huge plot hole in the clip.

The 50-second trailer sees a package arrive at the house of little girl Bonnie, who now owns Buzz Lightyear, Jessie and the other toys, with her mum saying: “Bonnie, there’s a package for you.” As Never Tears Us Apart by INEX plays in the background, we watch as Slinky Dog, Rex, Forky, Mr Potato Head, Mrs Potato Head, Jessie and the rest of the toys tremble in fear as Bonnie unpacks a frog-like tablet.

“In summer 2026, the age of toys is over?” text reads throughout the teaser trailer. We then see Woody and Buzz hug one another in fear as the tablet says, “Hi there, I’m Lilypad. Let’s play.”

Tom Hanks and Tim Allen are set to return as the voices of Woody and Buzz, while The Morning Show’s Greta Lee joins as Lilypad. Anna Faris, Ernie Hudson and Conan O’Brien will be taking on new roles in the cast, which features Joan Cusack, Blake Clark and Tony Hale.

However, after the events of Toy Story 4, some fans have been quick to point out that Woody actually left the rest of the toys at the end of the last film to join Bo Peep as a ‘lost toy’. One wrote on X: “See but like how did Woody get back there after staying with Bo peep such a plot hole.”

Another tweeted: “So Woody came back with the gang after he decided to be an ownerless toy with Bo at the end of the last movie? Toy Story 3 should’ve been the end of the series, 4 & 5 are not needed at all.”

“They’re gonna pretend 4 didn’t exist because Woody is there with the others,” a third wrote, while a fourth replied: “Honestly, at this point, if you’re gonna keep making endless Toy Story movies, don’t do any more bittersweet emotional endings anymore.

“Pixar baited us into believing the franchise would be finished TWICE, so don’t even think about making a bittersweet ending for 5.”

Despite the puzzling character return, many can’t wait for the fifth instalment. “Oh this is perfecttttttttttty,” one fan wrote on X, while another said: “Oooohhhhh we are about to have a TIIIIIIIIMEEEE!!!”

The new film is set to be released in June 2026 in theatres, with star Tim Allen teasing its tech villain last month.”It’s such a great story, I can only tell a little bit of it – it’s a Jessie story,” he said.

He continued: “Tom and I have to reunite and there’s just the funniest thing because there’s a whole bunch of Buzzes involved – and there’s a reason why.

“There’s 100 of me in a separate story and I get to play and have fun. So, the story is good.”
