BBC Breakfast’s Carol Kirkwood is ambushed by dogs for a THIRD time when playful puppies attack her mic and chew her hair as she presents the weather live on air
She’s already suffered two embarrassing blunders after being ambushed by dogs live on air.
And BBC Breakfast’s Carol Kirkwood has now been attacked for a third time, with three adorable Labrador puppies clambering all over her and nibbling her microphone as she presented the weather on Wednesday morning.
The meteorologist, 61, joined live from a Guide Dog puppy centre to present her segment and remained the ultimate professional as the playful pups climbed over her and chewed her hair.
During her live report, Carol said: ‘And we’re in for a treat because they’re absolutely adorable as you can see and they’re so playful as well.
‘They’ve [the puppies] been woken up early this morning just for us, with a lovely start to the day for them too… come on you little scamp… whoops get off my mic, you little monkey… anyway!’

But the puppies didn’t stop for Carol as they kept on tugging and pulling at her hair and mic as she continued her segment.
BBC Breakfast presenter Sally Nugent later praised Carol for remaining professional after the hilarious puppy attack.
She said: ‘Carol, I think you deserve and award for doing a weather forecast while someone was eating your microphone and another one was eating your hair. That was properly professional, well done.’
Earlier this month, Carol suffered another awkward on-air encounter as she was dragged to the floor by a dog during a live Wimbledon report, leaving her co-stars in hysterics.
Speaking during the segment, Carol began: ‘Isn’t he the most gorgeous boy? This is Ray, he is going to be five in August and he is one of the search dogs here.’
‘I must say, I am just going to stay here for a while with Ray. How well-behaved is he? He has hardly moved apart from to have his tummy rubbed.’
Just after praising the pooch for his good behaviour, Carol was dragged off camera by the spaniel and broke down into fits of giggles.
Speaking through hysterical laughter, Carol managed to squeeze out a ‘yes,’ before adding: ‘I can’t believe it’s happened again! It’s the Chelsea Flower Show all over again!’

In September 2021, the Scottish weather presenter ended up being taken out by an over excited hound leaving her co-presenter Dan Walker in hysterics back in the studio.
Carol had just given the forecast from Chelsea ahead of the annual Flower Show when the golden Labrador named Flash tugged at the lead and toppled her over.
A flustered Dan then exclaimed: ‘We’ve got a Kirkwood down! We’ve got a Kirkwood down! Someone save Carol!’
‘Flash is strong!’ laughed Carol as she got back onto her knees and put her earpiece back in.
‘Are you alright Carol?’ asked Dan, to no response.
‘We’re just checking that you’re okay,’ Sally Nugent added. ‘Are you alright?’
‘Yes!’ Carol replied. ‘Yes, she’s a very strong girl, Flash.’
The blunder came just moments after Carol had declared that Flash was ‘very well behaved’.
