Carol Kirkwood was left blushing after her colleague almost took the weather presenter down for a cheeky on-air kiss. The meteorologist delivered her latest forecast on Monday’s edition of BBC Breakfast before the show was abruptly halted.
The 62-year-old, who tied the knot with her husband Steve last year, was left in shock when what, at first appeared to be a passerby, leaned in to grab the forecaster for a cheeky on-screen kiss.
Carol delivered her latest forecast in Covent Garden in London where fake snow fell as she spoke directly to Jon Kay and Sally Nugent who were live in the BBC studios.
She commented, “It’s really falling now… It’s fabulous.”
Sally replied, “How did you manage that? I always knew you had special powers but that is another level.”
Carol, who had been wearing mistletoe, admitted she had not had much luck with it before a passerby came on screen and grabbed the weather presenter.

She commented: “My mistletoe… it hasn’t done any tricks this morning.”
The man in question suddenly appeared as he pulled Carol into his arms for a cheeky on-air kiss as she yelped.
A flustered Carol commented, “Oh, I say… Tim.”
Sally and Jon chuckled following the on-air interruption as Carol confirmed to viewers the man in question was her colleague.
She said: “That’s Tim our science engineer. We’re good friends. I wasn’t expecting that.”
Jon chuckled: “She’s blushing.”
Sally cheekily remarked: “No she’s not. Although, I’m sure they’re really good friends now.”
Viewers reacted to the cheeky on-air moment on X as one person wrote: “OMG!” While another added: “That was hilarious.”
