“Look at it. Fabulous,” she said of the view in Greenwich Park.

“The sun’s beating down. We’ve seen lots of doggers.”

Kirkwood quickly corrected herself, saying: “Not doggers of course!

“Lots of dog walkers and joggers around here through the course of this morning.”

BBC Breakfast host Dan Walker responded: “Reasons to love Carol number 472…. Recovered like a pro. I don’t think anyone even noticed.”
