Naga Munchetty reacts as BBC co-star Mike Bushell has accident minutes before going live

“Awwww better it happen before rather than during!” one follower pointed out in the comments section of the picture.

“Sack the juggler,” another joked.

“Oh dear, why is it always Mike [laughing emoji],” a third fan remarked.

A fourth viewer added: “I thought with all the sports you’ve tried you would have ninja like reactions. Shoulda woulda coulda caught the mug.”

A BBC co-worker also jokingly said Mike should be punished for his mishap, adding: “The official punishment for this is that you have to do a brew round.”
