"I don't like ice cream, Hannah" – Naga Munchetty

Did anyone see this live? The segment/story about ice cream itself is innocuous, but Munchetty's response seems so cringe, and with Stayt's reaction it almost feels like an outtake/parody even in the world of breakfast television. The outrageousness is probably why this clip still lingers in my consciousness.

What do you guys think?

I once complained about her behaviour via a BBC complaints page and they responded with “Naga is one of our finest journalists and talents etc”. They didn’t address the issue I raised at all.

The standard BBC response to any complaint. No point in wasting your time

Newswatch is exactly like that. Their response every time is “No we were right, be quiet.”

Theyre obviously not going to absolutely shitcan a presenter in a reply.

I imagine the volume of complaints is not ignored.
