BBC Breakfast is hit by chaos after set falls apart on shocked reporter as she presents live segment

BBC Breakfast was thrown into chaos after a set fell apart while a shocked reporter was presenting a live segment of Monday morning’s show.

Jane McGovern was on the set of a new stage adaptation of the iconic 1970s sitcom Some Mothers Do ‘Ave ‘Em to interview some of the actors, while Jon Kay and Sarah Campbell hosted the main show.

The popular series followed the hapless Frank Spencer, who was unable to perform the simplest daily tasks while also taking care of his wife and baby.

The sitcom is now being turned into a live-action comedy and BBC Breakfast’s Jane was the first to get a glimpse of the stage set.

But one of the crew members scared her because during the tour he said, ‘He’s [Frank] much work done, as you can see, on the house. Everything is as solid as a rock.’

The production crew then deliberately destroyed some of the stair railings, in a hilarious nod to the clumsy and chaotic nature of the series, where Frank’s house was always falling apart.

“Sorry, sorry about that,” the crew member apologized as Jane screamed.

While visiting the set, Jane also witnessed a cupboard door being pulled open as she shouted, “Totally reliable!” She was also offered a seat on a chair with only three legs.

The BBC star said: ‘You might want to sit here, but not in that chair!’

Presenters Jon and Sarah couldn’t help but laugh at the scenes they watched from the studio.

Sarah joked: ‘You know Michael Crawford did all his own stunts, and in the 70s the health and safety situation might not have been what it is now!’

Actor Sam Denia will play the role of Frank in the new stage production of the sitcom.

The crew member explained, “When you have Frank build a house, with his DIY skills, a lot can go wrong. And it does!”

The production staff then deliberately broke several of the staircase’s banisters, in a hilarious nod to the clumsy and chaotic nature of the show, which always saw Frank’s house falling apart.

This came after BBC Breakfast presenter Sally Nugent recently had to apologise after a guest swore on live radio.

The 52-year-old presenter and her co-host Jon Kay, 54, interviewed Nicolette Jones, curator of the Ditchling Museum of Art & Craft, and cartoonist Steve Bell about an exhibition, Bloomin’ Brilliant, featuring the work of the late illustrator Raymond Briggs, creator of The Snowman.

Steve had a bad feeling when he said about his friendship with Raymond: ‘He was mostly laughing at each other, but he was so much fun.’

Sally ended the interview quickly, saying, “Thank you both for talking to us this morning.

Sarah joked: ‘You know Michael Crawford did all his own stunts, and in the 70s the health and safety situation might not have been what it is now!’

“And apologies if anyone was offended by the choice of language in that interview just now.”

To which Jon teased, “We should have done it in pictures, not words. That would be a lot safer, right?”

After the accident, viewers went to X, formerly Twitter.

They wrote: ‘I just heard a man swear on BBC Breakfast while talking about books’ and ‘I’m not offended, I swear like a madman, don’t worry Sally’.
