Viewers left baffled after BBC Breakfast makes a presenter change mid-show

BBC Breakfast viewers were left wondering whether their early morning mind was playing tricks on them, as the TV show replaced one of its presenters without warning.

Regular presenter Louise Minchin began the show alongside co-host Dan Walker. But midway through proceedings she was gone and her place had been taken by sports presenter Sally Nugent. Viewers were confused by the unannounced change, the likes of which they hadn't witnessed before. https://twitter.com/tidoubleggrrr65/status/826705649337765888 https://twitter.com/shoemaker1948/status/826708499606429696 https://twitter.com/Frizzstar/status/826705927504068608 Some rushed to express concern for Minchin, who has worked on the show since 2006. https://twitter.com/suelesbcfc/status/826703169153593344 https://twitter.com/RachaelParkman/status/826694884593659904 The BBC soon cleared things up, explaining that Minchin had been taken ill, forcing them into an emergency substitution. https://twitter.com/BBCBreakfast/status/826694788883808256 Thankfully, she soon confirmed that she was on the mend. https://twitter.com/louiseminchin/status/826768537272381441 But that didn't stop some conspiracy theories coming in. https://twitter.com/PhilLeach1960/status/826701217812316161 https://twitter.com/DavidLear11/status/826704717690568704 https://twitter.com/wendygray47/status/826711551138754561
