John Campbell finished his first week on Breakfast on Friday, and the crew celebrated with a short highlights reel.
It featured some great moments including John running late a couple times, interrupting Hayley Holt's update by gushing over Aldous Harding, and calling a guest by the wrong name before admitting:"I'm buggered".
But it also revealed the broadcasting legend's one major gripe with his new role, as he ran on set after they'd already gone to air without him.
He announced: "The outrageous thing about this show is it's called Breakfast and there isn't any!"
In another clip he got fired up over a story and then exhaled loudly and said: "That's what happens when I have muesli".
Luckily, co-presenter Matty McLean rectified the situation this morning saying: "John, it's your second week on Breakfast and I did hear you complain just a couple of times... maybe not complain but query..."
JC interrupted: "I did complain, I absolutely complained. I'm unioninsing the team. You can't call a show Breakfast and not serve it. It's a breach of the fair trade descriptions act, it is. Where's the bloody breakfast?"
With that, Matty presented a delightful breakfast selection to raucus applause from John - roll on week two!
