BBC Breakfast today?

During today’s show, Nina was left red-faced after an embarrassing wardrobe blunder during a report this morning.

On this morning’s show, Jon Kay and Sally Nugent discussed how chicken was the latest food ingredient to soar in price.

Nina then appeared via video link from a chicken farm in Holmfirth, West Yorkshire.

Nina explained that because of the cost of living rising, it’s becoming more expensive to look after and breed chickens.

This is then having a knock-on effect on restaurants. The likes of Nando’s and KFC have already increased their prices.

She explained that this could lead to families going out for meals less due to the rising prices.

It may have sounded like a lot of doom and gloom – but there was one moment of levity during Nina’s report.

Towards the end of the report, Nina was given the opportunity to hold one of the chickens.

The bird behaved while on camera – but its behaviour off-screen was another story.

“Just to say, it’s the first time I’ve held chicks today,” Nina told Sally and Jon.

“But if you were wondering down here if this is toothpaste from this morning… it is not.”

She then pointed out a white mark on her blue coat – a present from one of the chickens.

“Thanks, Nina, for that image,” Sally said as the report ended.
