ANYONE tuning into BBC Breakfast this morning might have been left confused, after a familiar face was "missing" from the show.
Instead, the popular BBC One morning news programme underwent a shake up which saw another presenter filling in.
BBC Breakfast fans are used to seeing Charlie Stay, 61, hosting the show at the weekend alongside Naga Munchetty, 49.
Since making his debut back in 2006, Charlie is a regular on the red sofa, hosting the news programme from Thursday to Saturday.
But fans hoping to kick off their weekend with the popular presenter got a shock when another face was seen hosting the show instead.

Filling in for Charlie is journalist Ben Thompson, who kicked off the show by running through the controversies surrounding tonight's Eurovision Song Contest.
Ben joined the BBC Breakfast team in 2012, and often covers at the weekend when the main presenters are off.
The presenter, from Burnley, has had an impressive career - spanning over two decades - within the iconic broadcasting company.
Ben is also known for co-hosting Business Live, the BBC's daily business programme.
Meanwhile, yesterday Naga left usual co-host Charlie seething as she playfully swiped at their relationship.
The two anchors were on hosting duties for Friday's edition of the flagship BBC show.
During the show they brought viewers the latest news and across the country and around the world.
But tensions boiled over as Charlie and Naga crossed over to Morning Live to see what was coming up on the show.
As Michelle Ackerley helped her co-star Gethin Jones live on air, the 46-year-old thanked her during the link.
It prompted Naga to remark: "Awh you two are so lovely to each other aren't you?

"Aren't you lucky Gethin?"
As Gethin nodded with laughter, Naga then turned to Charlie in the studio and said: "We could take a leaf out of their book sometimes."
However, the BBC Breakfast stalwart was having none of it and ignored Naga's comments.
Keeping a straight face down the lens of the camera, he brought the show to an break.
"Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are," said Charlie as Naga gritted her teeth.
It comes weeks after eagle-eyed Beeb viewers took to social media to comment on how 'bored' Charlie looks with Naga.
BBC Breakfast airs daily from 6am on BBC One.
